Sunday 30 April 2017 15:50, UK
Sky Bet League One champions Sheffield United beat relegated Chesterfield 3-2 to end the season on 100 points.
United twice surrendered the lead as goals from Kieron Freeman and Billy Sharp were cancelled out by efforts from Kristian Dennis (penalty) and Paul McGinn before Daniel Lafferty struck the winner.
The visitors' cause was not helped by the dismissal of Dan Gardner midway through the second half with the score at 2-2.
After Dennis had a couple of good chances early on, United struck the first blow when Freeman (18) tapped in following a goalmouth scramble.
Sharp saw his low drive well saved by Thorsten Stuckmann, who turned the ball onto his right post.
