Sheffield United are almost assured of a play-off spot despite Billy Clarke's late equaliser for Bradford City.

Andy Halliday fired wide and Clarke had a shot cleared off the line as City had the better of the first-half chances.

Jason Holt turned in from close range to put the hosts ahead, but Clarke slotted home from the edge of the box to equalise late on.

The visitors then lost defender Rory McArdle in stoppage time after he was handed a second yellow card.

The result means Sheffield United need just one point from their remaining three games to guarantee a place in the play-offs.

Bradford's slim hopes of reaching the top six are now over, as they stay 10 points behind Chesterfield but now have only two games to play.
