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

Due to the draw, everything pointed to the definition of the winner of the tie would be extended, but everything changed in the dying minutes of the match: Patrick Roberts scored the 1-1 that secured the qualification in the 93rd minute. There was happiness in Sunderland, but also a tense atmosphere, as the referee awarded 10 minutes of additional time, which turned into 12 minutes.

The story didn't change any further and, after the final whistle, the players of 'The Black Cats' started celebrating on the field. At the same time, the fans who cheered from the stands accompanied the celebrations with chants.

However, there was also caution in Sunderland, as there is still one more step to leave the English third division: they will face Wycombe for the last ticket to be promoted to the Championship. These teams clashed twice in the last League One season and the 'Black Cats' have a good record: they won 3-1 at home and drew 3-3 away.

When will Sunderland vs. Wycombe play?

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