Chris Wilder hits out at technology in football after ghost goal

The Blades were denied a winner after goal-line technology caused controversy at Villa Park.

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder admits he has sympathy for referee Michael Oliver after a goal-line technology farce denied them victory at Aston Villa.

Orjan Nyland carried Oliver Norwood's first-half free-kick across the line but referee Oliver's watch failed to register the goal in Wednesday's 0-0 draw.

It ensured the Premier League returned for the first time in three months mired in controversy after the coronavirus pandemic halted sport in March.

But boss Dean Smith was happy with his side's performance as they get used to playing behind-closed-doors.

"It's different. It's not the buzz that you get from having the supporters here, but you're emotionally attached all the same," he said, with Villa only a point from safety.

"We know we need more performances like that to stay in this league. I said I wanted to make the supporters proud and hopefully they were watching today and seen the work we've been doing over the last 14 weeks.

"I want to be a different Aston Villa team for this final 10-game tournament."
