Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder could not hide his disappointment after his side let slip a two-goal lead to draw 3-3 against Fulham at Bramall Lane. (More Football News)

The Blades led 3-1 with four minutes of regulation time remaining after Ben Brereton Diaz바카라s second-half double sandwiched Oli McBurnie바카라s effort.

Joao Palhinha had headed Fulham level after Brereton Diaz바카라s opener, while two stunning finishes from substitute Bobby De Cordova-Reid and Rodrigo Muniz 바카라 the latter바카라s in stoppage time 바카라 rescued the Londoners a point.

Wilder, whose side had conceded 21 goals in their four previous home matches, said: 바카라When you score three goals at home in the Premier League, to only get a draw, I think that바카라s the disappointing aspect of it.

바카라Obviously the narrative from everybody was home form, goals conceded and being out of the game after 25 minutes, so we had to make sure we did something about it.

바카라We had to get a foothold in the game, so first base was reached at half-time and the message at half-time was we just needed to show a bit more quality, more belief, enjoy the ball a little bit more, and they did.

바카라We scored three good goals from our point of view. The flip side is another set-piece has hurt us and then two incredible finishes get them something out of the game.바카라

Brereton Diaz and McBurnie, who had a second effort after the interval ruled out for offside, combined with deadly precision for the Blades바카라 first two goals.

Wilder added: 바카라I바카라m sure if we had been able to stick those two together for a little bit more time we would have reaped the rewards of two really good players, who obviously have an understanding.바카라

Fulham head coach Marco Silva also admitted it had been a bitter-sweet afternoon for his side after they had dominated before Brereton Diaz바카라s 58th-minute opener.

Silva said: 바카라I have to say it was an exciting game for sure for the people who were here, but I have to be honest, it was a disappointing result for us. Clearly disappointing.

바카라When you are dominant from the first minute like we were, the team who created more clear chances to win the game 바카라 it is disappointing.

바카라Of course the reaction, I have to say, as a team it was fantastic. As a team we refused to lose this game because of the way we dominated.

바카라We showed the quality to come back from 3-1, scoring two great goals and creating more chances even to win the game in the last minutes.바카라

Muniz struck the woodwork twice, either side of the interval, before Fulham fell behind and the Brazilian striker has now scored eight in as many top-flight appearances.

Silva added: 바카라It was unlucky for him with two off the post, but he kept his composure and trusted in himself.

바카라He scored a great goal to help the team get a point and there바카라s much more to come from him.바카라
