Dons provided United with a guard of honour prior to kick-off and were unable to match them over the 90 minutes.

Leon Clarke continued his rich vein of form to give Blades the lead on the stroke of half-time.

Sharp then capitalised on a slip in the Dons defence to smash home his 200th goal of his career.
