The battle for the top spot in the English Championship is heating up, and Sheffield United are refusing to let Leeds United pull away. In a fiercely contested 38th-round match, Sheffield United secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over their local rivals, Sheffield Wednesday, to draw level on points with Leeds once again.
