    Is his watch not working?!

  3. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheffield United

    Ian Dennis
    BBC Radio 5 Live senior football reporter

    I've got to say, forgive me, I may be wrong but from the images I'm seeing that looks like it crossed the line.

    Why hasn't VAR intervened?

  4. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    Just watching the replays Orjan Nyland is holding the ball in the sidenetting and it looks to be behind the post. It certainly looks like it is over, but the technology says no.

    A massive talking point for half time.

  5. Clinton Morrison
    Former Crystal Palace striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    That's miles over the line - he's in the net.

  6. Ian Dennis
    BBC Radio 5 Live senior football reporter

    I'd like to see that again - he was in the back of the net! That has gone in surely?

  7. CLOSE!

    Aston Villa 0-0 Sheffield

    Oliver Norwood sends the ball towards the far post, it's over everyone's heads and it's gone in!

    Oh wait, no! Referee Michael Oliver points at his watch to say it hasn't crossed the line!

    Football's back for barely 45 minutes and controversy already!

  8. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    Sheffield United win a free kick level with the penalty area on the left side as Billy Sharp is caught by Kortney Hause.

    Good position this for the Blades...

  10. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    Nine minutes to go until the break and John Lundstram is the first Sheffield United player to be booked after stopping a quick Aston Villa free kick.

  11. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheffield United

    Clinton Morrison
    Former Crystal Palace striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Sheffield United are gaining in confidence, particularly down their right-hand side. Slowly but surely they are causing Villa some problems.

    But that's another great opportunity for Villa - Kortney Hause didn't expect it to come to him.

  12. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    Almost again for Aston Villa from another set piece as Kortney Hause chests wide from a Conor Hourihane corner.

  13. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    If you are watching the game, fake crowd noises - yes or no?

    Thumbs up for yes, thumbs down for no.

  14. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    A second corner of the game for Sheffield United, Orjan Nyland fails to hold Oliver Norwood's delivery at the first attempt but is fortunately able to claim the ball soon after before any Sheffield United players can pounce.

    Pete Mistry: It's right to state that there are bigger priorities than football. But it is also absolutely fine to yearn for it to be back and to do everything possible to make it happen in a safe and risk-managed way. I am delighted that it is back.

  16. 'That's a penalty'

    Aston Villa 0-0 Sheffield United

    Clinton Morrison
    Former Crystal Palace striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    That could be given as a penalty! Lundstram caught him - El Ghazi was looking for it but there was contact.

    We have the monitors and there was contact. That's a penalty.

  17. YELLOW CARD

    Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    And to make things even more frustrating for Aston Villa, Douglas Luiz is shown a yellow card shortly after that penalty claim.

  18. PENALTY APPEAL

    Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    Ohh, that's a penalty, isn't it? Anwar El Ghazi gets into the box and is sent to the ground by John Lundstram. If there were a crowd, they would be screaming for a spot kick but nothing given by referee Michael Oliver and VAR doesn't intervene with the decision.

  19. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    Drinks break!

    The players head to the side of the pitch to replenish fluids as we hit the midway point of the first half.

  20. Aston Villa 0-0 Sheff Utd

    Another corner for Aston Villa which Conor Hourihane sends into the box this time but the delivery flies over everyone's heads.
