"Chris Wilder was sent off for kicking a ball that hit a supporter in the crowd as Sheffield United threw away the lead in a 2-1 defeat to Southampton at Bramall Lane. The rock-bottom Blades went ahead in Tuesday's contest courtesy of a fine Tyrese Campbell opener, and their luck appeared to be in when Adam Armstrong skied a first-half injury-time penalty over the crossbar."
"Wilder was seemingly irked by the penalty award when walking off at half-time, though, and booted a ball into the stands that struck a fan. The United boss went over to apologise but was shown a red card by referee Adam Herczeg. His night worsened in the second half as Ross Stewart scored twice in the space of seven minutes to turn the game on its head."
"Middlesbrough and Stoke City played out a goalless draw at the Riverside Stadium in a table-topping clash. Home boss Rob Edwards was frustrated as he felt Tommy Conway should have had a first-half penalty when booked for simulation, but neither side could find a winning goal. Demarai Gray smashed in a 99th-minute leveller to deny financially stricken Sheffield Wednesday in a 2-2 draw with Birmingham City at St Andrew's."
Sheffield United took a 1-0 lead through Tyrese Campbell but lost 2-1 to Southampton after Ross Stewart scored twice and manager Chris Wilder was sent off for booting a ball into the stands that struck a supporter. Adam Armstrong had earlier missed a first-half injury-time penalty by skying it over the crossbar. The Blades have lost all four home games this season, their worst home start since 1954. Demarai Gray scored a 99th-minute leveller as Sheffield Wednesday drew 2-2 with Birmingham City. Bristol City and Leicester each drew 1-1. Several other matches produced draws, including Middlesbrough 0-0 Stoke and Preston 2-2 Hull, while Swansea beat Blackburn 2-1.
