Oli McBurnie ends goal drought to earn Sheffield United point at Luton

bt.com

Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie scored his first league goal since December 2020 as the Sky Bet Championship leaders hit back to earn a 1-1 draw at Luton.

McBurnie last found the net in a league game in a 2-1 top-flight defeat to Leicester, while his only goal last term came in the Carabao Cup against Southampton, when he scored an equaliser to force a penalty shoot-out the Blades ultimately lost.

He was on hand with the leveller again at Kenilworth Road, volleying home eight minutes into the second half to cancel out Carlton Morris’ earlier effort.

Morris had headed the home side in front after only 10 minutes. The Hatters threatened first, Allan Campbell doing well to burst away on the right and his low cross met by Morris, who spun his man but could only fire over.
