The Blades had come from behind to lead.
Having both lost their first three games of the campaign, this already had a big-game feel to it and while both sides will be pleased to be up and running, they might also see it as a missed opportunity to get their first win of the campaign.John Egan put a free header straight at Everton goalkeeper Pickford before James Tarkowski produced a fine block to deny Archer.And it was from the resulting corner that they went ahead in the 14th minute, finally breaking their duck for the season.
Tarkowski climbed highest from the corner and the ball fell to Doucoure, whose first shot was parried by Wes Foderingham, but the midfielder was on hand to tap home the rebound from close range. Everton had an excellent opportunity to immediately double their advantage as they had a four-on-two counter-attack, but Danjuma chose not to pass and his shot was blocked.
The Blades responded well and Pickford produced an excellent save to stop Gus Hamer’s low effort from sneaking in at the near post.Hamer’s cross found McBurnie, who teed his strike partner up to arrow a shot into the corner from 12 yards.Set up on a plate for Cameron Archer to finish in style! 🙌
