Ian Taylor has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Aston Villa’s dramatic comeback against Sheffield United, and it is simply “wow”.

United looked to have wrapped up the points from the Championship game at Villa Park on Friday evening by 62 minutes, with Billy Sharp scoring a hat-trick.

With United 3-0 up and Villa struggling to impose themselves on the match, it did look as though the Blades were going back home with the win.

However, Villa staged a dramatic comeback thereafter and scored three goals in the final 10 minutes.

Tyrone Mings, signed on loan from Premier League club Bournemouth in the January transfer window, scored the opening goal for Villa in the 82nd minute.

Tammy Abraham, who joined the Villans from Chelsea in the summer of 2018, found the target for the home team four minutes later, and then in the fourth minute of injury time, Andre Green made it 3-3.
