Stead and Tonge move Blades clear

Sheffield United 2 Fulham 0

The much-needed victory brought the curtain down on a four-match winless streak for the Blades, and was only the second in eight games for manager Neil Warnock’s side.

Stead ended a 10-game barren run with his first goal for United in the 23rd minute following his recent move from Sunderland, while Tonge followed up five minutes later with his first for nine months.
