Republic of Ireland players Tom Cannon and Dara Costelloe were among the goals on a busy day in the Championship.
Cannon scored what proved to be the decisive goal as Sheffield United moved seven points clear of the Championship relegation zone after claiming a 2-1 win away at Stoke.
Second-half goals from Jairo Riedewald and a wonderfully struck volley from Cannon secured all three points for Chris Wilder's side, who have moved up two places in the standings to 17th.

Yang Min-hyeok scored a last-gasp winner to give Portsmouth a vital 2-1 win over Charlton and lift them out of the Championship's relegation zone.
In an extraordinary ending to the game at Fratton Park, Harvey Knibbs sparked wild celebrations on the Charlton bench as he headed in an equaliser in the last minute of additional time after Shaughnessy had given Pompey the lead.
Defender Shaughnessy was introduced late on, for his first appearance in three months after recovering from a hamstring injury. With almost his first touch, he scored a vital goal as he stooped to head in Segecic's corner at the near post.
Knibbs then levelled but Pompey went straight up the other end and caused euphoria right around the ground as Tottenham loanee Yang struck a devastating blow to Nathan Jones' side.

Wrexham moved to within four points of the play-off places with a 2-1 win over Preston at the Stok Cae Ras.
Club record signing Nathan Broadhead nodded them in front in the 28th minute before substitute Ollie Rathbone doubled their lead 12 minutes from time, with Alfie Devine's late consolation not enough to stop Phil Parkinson’s men making it back-to-back wins in the league for the first time this season.

A 90th-minute winner from substitute Vivaldo Semedo earned in-form Watford a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Norwich at Carrow Road.
