The Wales<\/a> international, who left Bramall Lane last summer after one indifferent campaign with the Blades, struck twice as Wrexham rallied from 3-1 down to win 5-3 at Stok Cae Ras.<\/a><\/p>\n Moore failed to win over United supporters and was criticised after his error led to Sunderland’s winner in last season’s Championship play-off final.<\/p>\n “You get criticism, you get praise. You need to keep on an even keel. You can’t take it too harshly, and you can’t take the praise too big,” Moore said.<\/p>\n “But I’m delighted for myself. [They can] keep saying what they can say, and I can just keep producing on the pitch.”<\/p>\n Asked if he had been inspired by some of the criticism, he said: “Yes, absolutely!”<\/p>\n Wrexham conceded twice to Patrick Bamford, either side of a Tyler Bindon<\/a> own goal, inside the opening 15 minutes.<\/p>\n Callum O’Hare added a third for the visitors but Moore reduced the arrears and Ryan Longman levelled. Moore then put them ahead for the first time and a Josh Windass penalty completed the fightback.<\/p>\n It was Wrexham’s first win in six outings and lifted them to 13th in the table.<\/p>\n “I think we played well in the first half but those three moments we could do better with, albeit Bamford is a really good player, manager Phil Parkinson said.<\/p>\n “We said to the lads at half-time we had to defend our box better, we were up against a high-calibre team. But we felt that if we carried on playing in the way we had done that chances would come to us and we’ve taken them.”<\/p>\n Blades boss Chris Wilder bemoaned the fact Moore was allowed to leave the club.<\/p>\n Wilder was not in charge at the time with the transfer being agreed between his two latest spells as manager.<\/p>\n – Wrexham come back from two goals down to beat Sheffield United 5-3<\/a> “It had nothing to do with me but I know what he’d be doing now, and he wouldn’t be wearing a Wrexham shirt,” he said. “I think it might have changed a few people’s views on him, and the importance of him last season and the importance of him for the home team today.<\/p>\n “The timings of goals were really poor. We have to get both parts of the game right, and we certainly didn’t, but Kieffer has done what Kieffer does.”<\/p>\n Wilder hopes United can secure the services of Bamford for longer, with the former Leeds striker’s short-term deal due to expire on New Year’s Day.<\/p>\n He said: “I can’t really do anything about it. It’s with the owners and Pat.<\/p>\n “He’s done what he needed to do, from our point of view. He’s been really good on and off the pitch. He’s produced really top performances.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dec 26, 2025, 04:45 PM ET Kieffer Moore was pleased to silence the Sheffield United fans after his…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":372250,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-372249","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-soccer","8":"tag-soccer","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=372249"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/372249\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/372250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=372249"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=372249"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=372249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Kieffer Moore scored twice against Sheffield United.\u00a0Jess Hornby\/Getty Images<\/p>\n
