Sunderland dreams of promotion: this is how the squad celebrated after qualifying for the final | VIDEO

Football in England is not only exciting because of the Premier League, but also because of the emotions that are experienced in promotion tournaments. This Monday, Sunderland was the main protagonist of the news, since they managed to reach the League One final, after an emotional game against Sheffield Wednesday.

‘The Black Cats’ had won 1-0 at home and needed a draw to advance to the round. However, those led by manager Alex Neil did not have an easy presentation on their visit to Hillsborough, as the local team leveled the series in the 74th minute, with a goal from Lee Gregory.

Due to the parity, everything indicated that the definition of the winner of the key would be extended, but everything changed in the agony of the match: Patrick Roberts scored the 1-1 of the classification at 93 ‘. Everything was happy in Sunderland, although there was also a tense atmosphere, since the referee awarded an additional 10 minutes, which became 12 minutes.

The story did not change any more and, after the final whistle, the players of ‘The Black Cats’ began to celebrate on the pitch. At the same time, the fans who cheered from the stands of the sports complex accompanied the celebrations with songs.

However, there was also restraint at Sunderland, given that there is still one more step to go before leaving the English third division: they will face Wycombe for the last ticket to climb to the Championship. These teams collided twice in the last season of League One and the ‘Black Cats’ have a good record: they won 3-1 at home and drew 3-3 on the road.

When does Sunderland vs. Wycombe?

The match Sunderland vs. Wycombe is scheduled for next Saturday, January 21 at Wembley Stadium in London, starting at 9:00 am (Peruvian time). This clash will be direct elimination and the winner will be promoted to the English Championship, the second division tournament.
