Sheffield has set a dubious record in the Premier League
Sheffield United made an unfortunate mark in Premier League history following their match against Luton (2:3).
The Blades became the first team in Premier League history to score two own goals after the 75th minute mark in a match. The two own goals were scored within a span of four minutes and 34 seconds.
Sheffield was leading 2:1 until the 77th minute when Jack Robinson and Anis Slimanе, in a bizarre sequence, sent the ball into their own net, gifting Luton an unexpected victory on Boxing Day.
Promoted back to the Premier League after finishing as Championship runners-up last season, Chris Wilder's team currently sits at the bottom of the league table after 20 rounds, having amassed just nine points. The Blades have managed only two wins alongside three draws and 14 losses.
Their first victory in the current campaign came on November 4th against Wolves. On December 5th, Wilder took over the managerial reins from Sheffield's Paul Heckingbottom, who was relieved of his duties due to the team's unsatisfactory performance.
