Reflecting on the Blades ' first goal, Mackie said: "You can't stand off Ollie Norwood, amazing quality and what a ball.

Baldock's emphatic strike just three minutes' later was then analysed, with Mackie comparing the technique shown by the defender to that of former West Ham striker Paolo Di Canio.
