And the Blades get the second half started at Bramall Lane.

There's an attacking change by Norwich at the break as Swiss striker Josip Drmic comes on for midfielder Todd Cantwell.

And there it is, the half-time whistle.

And Norwich will be relieved to be heading back down the tunnel just 1-0 down after a strong finish to the half by Sheffield United.

Norwich really need half-time here. Another cross is cleared as far as John Lundstram, who unselfishly plays it back to Oliver Norwood.

He fizzes it into the feet of Billy Sharp inside the box and he nudges it back to Lundstram, whose shot is firm but too close to Tim Krul.

Sheffield United are having fun now. They pass it round, all the way back to their defence and up the left wing, where Billy Sharp finds Enda Stevens on the overlap.

He delivers a dangerous low cross which is cleared before Oli McBurnie's acrobatic volley bobbles through to the keeper.

Billy Sharp has had to be patient for opportunities this season. But that's now three goals in four games for the 34-year-old striker.

An inswinging free-kick from the left wing finds Billy Sharp in the six-yard box and his shot hits Grant Hanley, right in front of him, before being cleared.

Goal provider almost turns goal scorer. A cross is cleared as far as John Lundstram on the edge of the box and he takes it down on his chest before hitting a right-footed volley just wide.

Norwich need to regroup - and quick.

The Blades actually make it four corners in quick succession, and the latter is flicked on by Alex Tettey for a throw-in on the right wing.

Enda Stevens gets down the left to win a corner, which is floated beyond the far post.

The Blades manage to get it back into the danger zone and John Egan has a tame shot blocked before fellow defender Jack O'Connell's goalbound effort is cleared by Kenny McLean for another corner.

Teemu Pukki has a hopeful effort blocked just outside the home box and the Blades break but Norwich are back quickly to snuff out the danger.

Credit to both sides for trying to play football, especially Norwich as they've stuck to their principles despite being in a relegation scrap.

Neither side have created much in the last few minutes though.

Sheffield United win a corner down the left which is headed away at the back post by Alex Tettey.

George Baldock is then penalised for a foul on Emi Buendia as he tries to win back possession for the hosts.

Both sides have a spell in possession before John Fleck mixes it up with a ball straight into the feet of striker Billy Sharp.

He's immediately stopped in his tracks by a firm - but fair - challenge by Grant Hanley though. He felt that one, the Blades' captain.

Sheffield United now play some neat football to open up a crossing opportunity for John Fleck but he's unable to pick out a team-mate in the middle and it runs through the box to safety.

After playing it round at the back again, Norwich suddenly go long and Tim Krul's kick picks out Teemu Pukki.

He manages to get behind his man but his attempted cut-back is blocked and cleared by the home defence from inside their own box.

Teemu Pukki should really have done better there. It wasn't the perfect angle but he definitely should have got it on target. He was inside the six-yard box too.

The Finnish striker has scored 11 goals this season but none in his last five.

Emi Buendia's long-range effort is deflected wide for a corner.

Teemu Pukki heads it back across goal and it comes straight back to him, only for Norwich's top scorer to volley it against the outside of the near post and wide.

Norwich are happy to enjoy some possession as they pass it round at the back.
