Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder spoke to BBC Radio Sheffield following their 3-0 win at Bristol City in the Championship play-off semi-final first leg.

"A really professional performance, everybody played their part," he said.

"I saw a glint in the eyes after the Burnley game, really focused, ready for this.

"I thought we got our noses in front with the goal the way that came about, a bit of a contentious decision again and a good bit of play to get ourselves in front of the game – that's good centre forward play, Tyrese flicks it on, Kieffer sticks his body in the way, just about to pull the trigger and he just gets ragged all over the place.

"As far as I'm concerned it was the correct decision, he's an experienced referee, he let a lot go, it was a competitive Championship game. They've made the mistake, not us.

"After that it was about patience, seeing what their shape was after they came out at half-time, how would they go about it and then knowing that maybe we'd get an opportunity to be clinical.

"I'm delighted that we've got a three goal lead, but there's still a lot of work to go into this. There must be a full house at Bramall Lane for this team."
