LONDON (Reuters) - Sheffield United missed the chance to take top spot in England's second-tier Championship on Tuesday after losing an extraordinary match 5-4 at home to struggling Fulham. Yet it was another hat-trick from Fulham's much-touted 17-year-old England youth international Ryan Sessegnon that ultimately saw the Londoners home. It meant Chris Wilder's United remained on 36 points, still two behind Wolves, who host Leeds United on Wednesday. Chris Coleman's debut as manager of Sunderland ended in familiar disappointment for the Championship's bottom club as they lost 2-1 at Aston Villa. Villa also leapfrogged Bristol City, who lost 2-1 at home to Preston North End, in the playoff zone.
