David Johnson was on loan. Very good striker. Just shown Sean Dyche in the crowd.

Loving the fact Dyche is wearing his same shirt and tie combo as if he was on the touchline 😂

This game is nailed on for a red card

Sheff U could easily nick this. But so could Forest.
End to end now.

Sheff U been so much more aggressive in this second half and it would be a surprise if they didn’t go on to the final.

Very impressed by Gibbs White for Sheff. Could try get him on loan next season from Wolves unless they think they’ll use him.

Forest doing their best to mess it up again, 2-0 up on Saturday, then gifting a late goal, then ahead tonight and with one foot in the final, they again are in danger of being the bridesmaids.

Great 2nd half by the Blades though to force ET.

Gibbs-White is some player.

Could not imagine the tension of penalties in a playoff semi final.

Reckon the keeper was way off his line for two of his three saves.

Don't bring the sterility of the Premier League into what was a smashing game of football between two teams who wanted to win.
Tackling allowed, players falling over trying to con the officials, common sense used by the officials, particularly when Heckinbotham acted like an idiot just before half time and got booked. The Blades got under the skin of Forest in that 15 minutes before half time and it showed in the second half when the Blades should have won.
All credit to Samba in the shoot out, now on to Wembley. I enjoyed that proper game of football without the encumberence of VAR etc.

Makes it even more bizarre that it was a Premier League official.

Samba clearly jumps forward before saving on both the first and final pen. If I were a Blade I’d be feeling pretty aggrieved watching that back.

VAR will be used in all 3 PO finals yes for better or worse, I'm not a huge advocate of VAR, however there has been some appalling decisions in both semi-finals.
