Sheffield United have sealed promotion back to the Premier League.
The Blades secured a 2-0 win over promotion chasers West Brom meaning they picked up the crucial three points they needed to play in the top flight next season.
Sheffield United boss Paul Heckingbottom made three changes to the team that lost 3-0 to Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final, with Tommy Doyle, James McAtee and Oli McBurnie coming in.
After a goalless first half, Sander Berge scored in the 58th minute followed by Anel Ahmedhodžić in the 78th.
Two years and nine days after they were relegated, the Blades sealed their return to the top flight with three games remaining. With Burnley claiming the title the night before, United knew that three points would be enough to get them over the line.
