Sheffield United defender Jack Robinson says the Blades "cannot drop off" in the second leg of their Championship play-off semi-final against Bristol City.

Goals from Harrison Burrows, Andre Brooks and Callum O'Hare have put Chris Wilder's side in the driving seat after a 3-0 win at Ashton Gate.

But Robinson, who won promotion to the Premier League with the Blades two years ago, is taking nothing for granted before Monday's second leg at home.

He told BBC Radio Sheffield: "It's more than we could have asked for, 3-0 is an unbelievable result. You don't get many games in the play-offs where you can take a comfortable lead into the second leg.

"A 3-0 lead, it's more comfortable but we still have to perform. We cannot drop off now but we will try to keep a clean sheet and go on to win it.

"Anything can happen in the play-offs, we have seen that over the years so it is on us now.

"A play-off game is totally different to a league game and we knew that. The atmosphere was rocking but we produced our best which was more than good enough."

Chris Wilder's side host Bristol City in the second leg on Monday, 12 May, with the winners to face either Sunderland or Coventry at Wembley on Saturday, 24 May.
