EFL Playoff Semi Final 2nd leg: Nottingham Forest 1-2 Sheffield United (Forest win 3-2 on penalties)

A dramatic night at the City Ground, as Sheffield United produced a spirited performance to beat the Reds 2-1 on the night, which meant extra time and eventually penalties. Brennan Johnson emulated his dad by scoring in both legs of a play-off semi final against the Blades, but second half goals from Morgan Gibbs-White and John Fleck meant that it was honours even on aggregate. Brice Samba was the hero, with a save late in extra time to deny Iliman Ndiaye a certain winner, and then three penalty saves in the shootout; Johnson, Cafu and Cook all buried their spotkicks before Joe Lolley's miss for the Reds, but Samba denied Gibbs-White to prompt a pitch invasion.

Rich Ferraro and Baz report on the good, the bad and the ugly (the Billy Sharp incident), with sore throats and aching heads having just returned from the match. We will have more considered thoughts for you at the weekend, when we will also preview the play-off final! See you at Wembley.
