Oldham 1-1 Sheffield United: Blades held by 10-man Oldham
Saturday 17 October 2015 20:44, UK
Sheffield United had to settle for a point as they drew 1-1 at 10-man Oldham.
The Blades carved out several second-half chances, but they were badly let down by their finishing.
Oldham went in front on 10 minutes when a Mike Jones corner flicked off United's Jose Baxter, giving Danny Philliskirk the chance to convert a close-range header at the back post.
Carl Winchester almost doubled the lead, but United equalised on the half-hour when Stefan Scougall set up Matt Done for an excellent 18-yard shot into the top corner.
Visiting keeper Mark Howard was forced into two smart saves after being tested by Dominic Poleon but the Blades' threat increased after half-time and Done wasted a golden chance when he fired wide after running clean through.
