Sheffield United are down to third in the Championship after dropping below Leeds United.
Sheffield United’s battle for promotion with Leeds United took a turn for the worse in midweek.
After rising above Leeds to second place at the weekend, Sheffield United followed the Whites by dropping points away to Birmingham City.
There are only five games remaining now. Leeds and Sheffield United have swapped places between second and third in three consecutive gameweeks.
One will finish in the play-offs, with the other clinching automatic promotion spot.
Sheffield United goalkeeper Dean Henderson has broken his silence on Twitter after the game, sending a short message.
His message simply read, ‘Enjoying the ride’, and was accompanied by a video of two of his saves against Birmingham.
The England under-21 international is in his first ever promotion battle at Championship level.
He is on loan from Manchester United, and is picking up valuable experience.
Henderson may be enjoying the ride, but he will hope his season does not end with a bump.
