FREE HIGHLIGHTS: Sheff Utd beat Coventry - and put pressure back on Leeds
Sheffield United returned to the top of the Championship on Friday night after a superb 3-1 win over Frank Lampard's in-form Coventry.
The Sky Blues had taken 30 points from their last 12 games - more than any other team in the top four divisions of English football - but they were outclassed by the Blades at Bramall Lane.

The result puts the pressure back on Leeds, who face Swansea on Saturday afternoon.
