Chris Wilder’s Sheffield United travelled to North London to face a struggling Tottenham side. Spurs were winless in the Premier League since the end of September, and were desperate to seal the 3 points at home. However, the Blades had other plans in mind.
The first half started evenly. Sheffield United created a couple of chances in the early stages but were unable to find the back of the net. Harry Kane was inches away from slotting the ball into the goal in the 16th minute but couldn’t do so. John Lundstram hit the post in the 31st minute followed by a shot by Lys Mousset which was blocked. Lo Celso had a chance to shoot from distance in the latter part of the first half, but dragged his shot wide. Moreover, Sheffield United were clearly the better side but the Lilywhites managed to hold on as the score was 0-0 at half time.
