West Brom interim boss James Morrison praised his side's second-half display after they rescued a point away to Sheffield United.

Although their winless run was extended to 12 league matches, the Baggies moved out of the relegation zone thanks to George Campbell's late equaliser after he had put the ball into his own net earlier in the second half.

Morrison told BBC WM: "We were a bit passive first half, I wasn't really happy with that. We addressed it at half time, then we got a reaction.

"I didn't feel that they were on top or causing us a bit of trouble around the goalmouth, I don't think Max [O'Leary] really had much to do until they scored and we opened up trying to get back in the game.

"I have been talking about staying in the game, giving ourselves chances. We were away from home, we had to be solid, we had to make it a little bit ugly, we had to slow it down at times and wait for that moment when they come.

"We were a bit desperate in the final third, we were trying to score every time but it's not the case, we can take that extra pass.

"On the other hand, George intercepts it and buries it, so I don't know!"

Albion are back in action again on Wednesday when they host Southampton.
