Wednesday v United: The Sheffield Derby presents a vivid account of one of the most passionate rivalries in football.

Individual derby matches are highlighted, providing emotive examples of each club's highs and lows, recalling the wildly contrasting rollercoaster ride undertaken by red and blue factions.
