Sheff United 1-2 Man United: What Heckingbottom said

Sheffield United manager Paul Heckingbottom speaking to Sky Sports: "I've said to the players that we have to build on that. We've had many performances like that. Today we had to change our shape with the injuries. Losing your captain and vice captain and other players in the last 10 days have not been ideal but it's an opportunity for other players.

"We adapted really well. Playing against top-class players we need to do a lot more work on it. We looked dangerous and defended very well.

"I know United had a lot of the ball and hit the bar but it was from outside the box and the winner is from 25-yards into the top corner as well. It's frustrating but it's a tough league."
