Oof.
Sheffield United keeper Wes Foderingham is forced to punch away the Blackburn corner that follows and the hosts win another at the opposite end.

Blackburn 1-0 Sheff Utd
Blackburn looked in fine form after their sensational opener early on in this game.
But they look nervy on the ball now and have been kept back to pinging long balls into the Sheffield United box.
Tyrhys Dolan tries to break the mould as he weaves into the box and eventually plays it out and Sorba Thomas picks up possession but he's blocked away.
Lewis Travis tries a low shot which is blocked and then eventually the hosts win a corner, as a roar goes up around Ewood Park.

Edgy stuff since we got back under way here.

We're back under way at Ewood Park.
Can Sheffield United get back on level terms against Blackburn? They certainly ended the first half better than they started.

An outstanding opener, my favourite goal of the season so far. Team work and counter-attacking at its finest.
Dolan’s rattled the bar. Sheffield United a threat, Basham with a tremendous run but a tame shot in the end.
Cardiff 0-0 Bristol City
Cardiff finish the first half on the up with a late free-kick that hits the wall from Perry Ng. All to play for in the second half.

Mark Atkins
Former Blackburn midfielder on BBC Radio Lancashire
It's been a good game, two good sides are playing out there. You can understand why both sides are in the top four or five in the league.
Blackburn were excellent in the first 20 minutes and scored a great counter-attack goal.
Sheffield United have put them under pressure but in normal play Rovers have handled them really well.
HT: Morecambe 0-0 Bolton
Goalless in League One at half-time, where victory would take Bolton third in the table before this afternoon's 15:00 GMT kick-offs.
The Trotters did go close to an opener just before the break, but Dion Charles' deflected 20-yard shot was saved by home keeper Connor Ripley.
Blackburn 1-0 Sheff Utd
All over in the first half at Ewood Park.
A first half which boils down to one stunning moment after Harry Pickering scored at the end of a stunning team move from Blackburn to work the ball upfield on the counter and stun Sheffield United.
The Blades aren't out of this one yet, mind. A big second half awaits.
Blackburn 1-0 Sheff Utd
Sheffield United win a corner but the hosts swiftly deal with it and go on the attack at the other end once more.
Tyrhys Dolan gets on the end of a loose ball and, despite being completely unmarked, he buries his shot well wide of the mark.
Cardiff 0-0 Bristol City
Michael Pearlman
BBC Sport Wales at the Cardiff City Stadium
I watch a lot of Cardiff, so at least this sniping is informed.
Cardiff would move six points clear of the relegation zone if they draw 0-0 today.
Cardiff have scored 25 goals in 35 Championship games this season.
How bad must the bottom three in the Championship be?
Cardiff's fans are so quiet. They have just been dragged down by the performances this season and it is entirely understandable.
If Cardiff don't get dragged into a proper relegation dogfight, considering how bad they are in front of goal, it will be absolutely miraculous for them.
Cardiff 0-0 Bristol City
The Robins have been forced into an early change as Joe Williams goes off and Andi Weimann comes on to replace him.
Blackburn 1-0 Sheff Utd
Harry Pickering whips in a low ball from the left into the Sheffield United box and John Fleck is forced to clear it away.
However he sheepishly punts the ball high into the stand behind the Blades' goal and Blackburn win a corner.
Tyrhys Dolan picks it up and goes to run into the box but goes down far too easily.
Blackburn 1-0 Sheff Utd
Oli McBurnie heads just wide of the left-hand Blackburn post as he gets on the end of a floated ball into the box.
Sheffield United aren't sitting back in pursuit of an equaliser before the break.
Blackburn 1-0 Sheff Utd
Joe Rankin-Costello goes down in the Sheffield United box.
Jack Robinson is livid and picks him up off the ground as Rankin-Costello's claims for a penalty go ignored.
Replays show the Blackburn man went down fairly easily.
Morecambe 0-0 Bolton
Fourth-placed Bolton are not having it their own way up on the Fylde coast so far this afternoon.
From a Jacob Beadeau free-kick, Cole Stockton fires just wide for the home side.
Still goalless though in League One.
