Wilson relieved to beat 'tough' Stevenage

Sheffield United manager Danny Wilson is delighted to have beaten Stevenage in the League One playoff semi-final.

A header from Chris Porter six minutes from time secured the Blades' place in the Wembley final after a goalless draw in the first leg, and Wilson has hailed their opponents' performances over both games.

"They were two of the hardest games we have had all season, and I have to say that Stevenage were fantastic again," Wilson told Sky Sports News.

"Anybody who wrote them off after the first game because of the result we got there misunderstood how good a team they are.

"But I felt that we dominated large periods, some of the football we played was tremendous."

United will face either Huddersfield Town or MK Dons in the final at Wembley on May 26.
