Proud Chris Wilder Celebrates Sheffield United's First Win of the Season

Sheffield United secured their first Sky Bet Championship points of the season after a challenging start, with manager Chris Wilder expressing how "great" the victory felt for both the players and the supporters.
Callum O’Hare scored the only goal in the second half, securing a slender 1-0 win over Gary Rowett's Oxford side.
The victory was a crucial turning point, as the Blades had previously lost their first six games in the Championship and had only managed to score once in that period.
Wilder acknowledged the difficulties the team and fans have faced, describing the preceding period as a "tough period for everybody".
The manager, who has watched the team closely over the last couple of weeks, was clearly moved by the effort and resilience shown by his players.
This much-needed win provides a significant boost to morale and is seen as the first step towards turning their season around.
