CHRIS WILDER hailed his young Sheffield United team as draw specialists West Brom earned one of their most important points of the season.
The Blades took the lead in the 23rd minute through Andre Brooks before Karlan Grant equalised a minute into first-half stoppage time.
It is incredibly tight at the top of the table and Blades manager Wilder felt the crowd drove the team on in the last 20 minutes. He said: "We have to win but today what I learnt about my team was so pleasing.
"Everyone is so short-term; if we win, then we are going up, and if we lose, then we aren't.
"It's a young group that has been put together in about three-and-a-half weeks. The performance was bigger than the result."
