How Wembley Unfolded

Was looking for something else, and stumbled across this (still say Coker's tackle won the day);


Southend United climb the steps at Wembley before lifting the play-off trophy
They of course now join Bury, Shrewsbury Town and Burton in promotion to League One. That's all from me here but make sure you check back tomorrow for the final day of the Premier League season. No penalty shootouts but plenty of drama expected. Cheerio!

Southend United perform an escapology act to reach League One
Seconds from defeat, Southend have somehow not only equalised in the dying moments of extra time but kept the momentum going to win the penalty shootout.
Wood's penalty was pushed on to the post by Dan Bentley following a period of extra time which was greater than perhaps anything we witnessed in the 90 minutes.
I wonder if those Southend fans were allowed a second opportunity to witness that shootout after leaving the stadium when their side were 1-0 down...

Right now it's time for the penalty shoot-out...
The spot kicks will be taken at the Wycombe Wanderers end....

So we go to penalties for a place in League One...
More has happened in extra time than it did in the 90 minutes! Wycombe look out on their feet having been just seconds away from promotion and now they have to face a buoyant Southend in a penalty shoot-out.
Southend fans who had already left the ground are now running back up Wembley Way after hearing the score trying to get back into the stadium.
Maybe I'm harsh but I wouldn't let them back in, they have abandoned their side when they needed their support most. That would teach them for leaving early!

GOAL! SOUTHEND UNITED 1-1 Wycombe Wanderers
120+2min:
Extraordinary! In the final few seconds, Weston darts down the left, before his cross leads to a Corr knockdown for Joe Pigott who lashes home across goal into the bottom corner. Some of the Southend support have already gone home!

20:08

119min: There will be two added minutes at Wembley as Southend now start to throw everyone forward!

20:04

116min: What a mess! Aaron Holloway freezes under the Wembley spotlight as racing in on goal he fails to put the match beyond Southend's reach.
after running unopposed into the box, he attempts to cut inside rather than shoot and as a result is tackled as Southend win the ball back.
