28 min: Bristol are forced into a change, with Smith coming off injured after a collision with Ejaria. Liam Walsh replaces him.
37 min: Bristol are throwing their weight forward in the hunt for a first goal now. Walsh forces Arsenal loannee Martinez into a reflex save before Brownhill is denied by a goal-line clearance and Hunt's follow-up somehow careers into the side-netting.
9 min: A dominant start at Bramall lane for Sheffield but no clear glimpses at goal just yet.
16 min: Colback is booked for diving on the corner of the box, after the midfielder deliberately hooked his foot on the defender's leg and tumbled acrobatically.
