West Bromwich Albion secured their first point after Carlos Corberan's departure, drawing 1-1 with Sheffield United. Karlan Grant's late first-half equalizer cancelled out Andre Brooks' stunning opener for the Blades. Despite the draw, Sheffield United remain top of the Championship.
West Brom wich Albion picked up their first point since Carlos Corberan's Christmas Eve departure thanks to Karlan Grant's late first-half equaliser against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.
It was Grant's sixth Championship goal of the season, of which five have been away from home, and he was denied another by home keeper Michael Cooper as Albion made a bright start to the second half. "We are so stretched it's unbelievable, and I'm so proud of my team. I thought we were light at the start of the season
"On another day we could have come away with all three points - and I don't think anybody could have questioned that. Sheffield United haven’t ended a year with a league draw in any of their last 20 years , since drawing 1-1 with Wigan Athletic in 2003.
