Raul Jimenez came off the bench to score a 90th-minute winner and earn Wolves a 1-0 win over Sheffield United.<\/p>\n

Cesar Peixoto’s side had controversially been denied a penalty shortly after the restart, when Mark McGuinness handled in the box.<\/p>\n

But a game of few clear-cut chances was settled when Jimenez swept in his third goal of the season from close range.<\/p>\n

The Blades had both scored and conceded in 14 of their last 15 Championship games at Bramall Lane – so perhaps there was always an inevitability that pattern would not continue.<\/p>\n

Chris Wilder’s side had just two touches in the opposition box in the first half and generated just 0.06 xG, while at the other end, Marshall Munetsi was Wolves’ biggest threat, though Michael Cooper was rarely tested.<\/p>\n

With 50 minutes on the clock, Mateus Mane flicked the ball towards goal, with McGuinness’ outstretched hand diverting it behind. Referee Rob Jones awarded a corner, nothing more.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Sky Sports Football<\/em>, co-commentator Gary Rowett said: “His arm comes out, it hits him on the end of the arm. I think Sheffield United have probably got away with one there.”<\/p>\n

Sheffield United debutant Jordan Ayew almost had the perfect introduction when he drove in from the right and flashed a cross-come-shot inches past the far post. But Jimenez had the final say.<\/p>\n

Andre located Kieran Trippier, and he moved the ball on for Tommy Doyle to find the Mexican striker, who swept home the decisive goal.<\/p>\n
