Hull City Stuns Sheffield United with a 3-0 Victory

2025-01-25

Hull City delivered a stunning performance to secure a 3-0 victory over Sheffield United at Bramall Lane, moving out of the Championship relegation zone and dealing a blow to the Blades’ promotion hopes. The Tigers, who had struggled for form this season, produced one of their most impressive displays of the campaign, with goals from Matt Crooks, Matty Jacob, and an own goal by Harrison Burrows sealing the win.

The visitors took an early lead in the sixth minute when Crooks, making his first start for Hull since joining from MLS side Real Salt Lake, fired a superb first-time strike from 25 yards following a swift counter-attack. Sheffield United, who had the chance to go top of the table with a win, struggled to break down a resolute Hull defence despite dominating possession.

The Blades’ frustrations grew in the second half when Tyrese Campbell thought he had equalised, only for his effort to be ruled out for a tight offside decision. Hull capitalised on the let-off, doubling their lead in the 63rd minute through Jacob, who poked in Cody Drameh’s low cross at the back post. The result was put beyond doubt in the 88th minute when Burrows turned Joao Pedro’s cross into his own net under pressure from Abu Kamara.

Hull’s victory, their third consecutive away win, lifted them to 18th in the table, two points clear of the relegation zone. Sheffield United, meanwhile, missed the chance to reclaim top spot and remain second, with leaders Leeds United now holding the initiative in the race for automatic promotion.

Hull boss Ruben Selles praised his team’s performance, highlighting their defensive organisation and clinical finishing. Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder admitted his side were “disjointed” and lamented the “poor goals” conceded, but remained confident his team could bounce back. The result leaves the Blades with work to do as they aim to secure a return to the Premier League.
