Fenerbache scored the only goal of the game in the first half after Cameroon striker Pierre Webo powered a header home after a cross from Caner Erikn on 13 minutes.

Soon after Webo had given Fenerbache the lead flares were lit in the away end.

In the second half Chris Porter drew the Blades level with a pin point header from a cross by Youngster Louis Reed. Defender Andy Butler almost headed Sheffield United infront from a corner while Reed, who crossed for Porter had a shot blocked.

Fenerbache goal scorer Webo tested Howard as the second half went on and at the other end some last minute defending denied Porter a second goal for himself and the Blades after he rounded Turkey international keeper Volkan Demirel.

In stoppage time Collins headed home a corner to give the Blades a memorable 2-1 win over the Turkish Giants.
