Sheffield United will look to get back on track when they host Blackpool next Saturday, while the Potters travel to Neil's former side Preston on the same day. However, Manchester City loanee Delap, the son of former Stoke and Republic of Ireland midfielder Rory, wrapped up the win right at the end with his first goal for the club. Jagielka, who had two spells with the Blades, became the first 40-year-old to score in the Championship since Kevin Phillips in 2014 when he powered in a header from Lewis Baker's corner to send the home side in ahead at the break.Īlex Neil's side had the better of the second half but Blades keeper Wes Foderingham produced fine saves from Fosu and Campbell to keep the away side in the game. Potters midfielder Tariqe Fosu saw a powerful shot come back off the crossbar from distance and Iliman Ndiaye's quality low effort struck the post for the visitors when the scores were tied at 1-1. There could easily have been more goals in a very exciting first half, with both teams looking threatening every time they went forward. Paul Heckingbottom's men remained top of the table after Norwich fell to a surprise 3-2 home reverse by Preston but are now only clear of the Canaries and third-placed QPR on goal difference. The Potters, who had been winless in three, wrapped up the victory in the final minute when Liam Delap tapped in from close range from Tyrese Campbell's centre. Jagielka then headed home from a corner in time added on at the end of the first half for his first goal since April 2019.
