Sunderland reach the League One playoff final after Patrick Roberts's late goal at Hillsborough earns a 2-1 aggregate win over Sheffield Wednesday.

Sunderland will play Wycombe Wanderers in the League One playoff final after claiming a 1-1 draw at Sheffield Wednesday on Monday night.

Trailing 1-0 after Friday's first leg at the Stadium of Light, Wednesday needed to win at Hillsborough to at least take the game to extra time.

When Lee Gregory netted 16 minutes from time to put the Owls in front, the contest appeared destined for another 30 minutes to decide who would advance to Wembley Stadium.

However, in the third of 11 minutes of added-on time, Manchester City loanee Patrick Roberts found an equaliser for Sunderland, his second goal since his January arrival.

Alex Neil's team now progress through to face Wycombe after the Chairboys also prevailed by a 2-1 aggregate scoreline against MK Dons.

The showpiece will take place on May 21, Sunderland attempting to return to the Championship for the first time since 2018 and Wycombe trying to earn just a second season in the division after relegation last year.
