Another save for the personal highlights reel when he palmed away Fraser’s well-struck, goalbound effort in the second half Photo: Richard Heathcote
2. George Baldock - 8
Couple of touches of real quality in the first half as he skipped around his man more than once. A superb challenge on Fraser lifted the Bramall Lane crowd Photo: Danny Lawson
3. Chris Basham - 8
A superb touch and turn in the second half almost fashioned a chance before seconds later, he was sprinting back and winning a header that was 70/30 in his marker’s favour. Which sums up Basham as a player. Photo: Richard Heathcote
4. John Egan - 7
Caused a mini-melee on the touchline with a tackle on Gosling which sent the Cherries man to the turf. Photo: Laurence Griffiths
