This ended as the latest advert for the Premier League in all its frantic, unpredictable glory as added time featured red cards for Rhian Brewster and Vladimir Coufal plus the penalty awarded for Alphonse Areola’s challenge on Oli McBurnie.
Before this was taken, there was more: after a stoppage for treatment to the West Ham goalkeeper, Areola could not continue and so Lukasz Fabianski strolled on to face McBurnie. Cue the attacker stroking the ball in and Sheffield United’s support hitting ecstasy, taunting the travelling fans with: “Who are you, who are you?”
