Adams has scored five goals in 11 appearances for the Blades this season

Che Adams scored twice as Sheffield United claimed a closely-fought victory over Rochdale at Bramall Lane.

Adams' fine run gave the home side the lead, before Matt Done conceded a penalty that Dale forward Peter Vincenti hammered home.

The Blades went back in front before the break as Adams slotted in Billy Sharp's excellent cross.

Lewis Alessandra brought the scores level but a curling corner from Neill Collins secured United three points.

Adams came close to a hat-trick in the final minute of the game as he charged through the midfield, but his powerful shot was well saved by Josh Lillis.

Rochdale boss Keith Hill told BBC Radio Manchester:

"They're a big football club playing in League One football and you need everything to go right for you, to win and get something from these places and unfortunately we made too many mistakes.

"If you look at the attacking portfolio of players that they've got, they're difficult to contain.

"I thought we did that very well in the first half up until the goals. For us to be 2-1 down at half time is very disappointing."
