The crazy scenario!

This Saturday at Wembley, the promotion final for next season’s Premier League was held between Sheffield United (3rd in the standings) and Sunderland (4th in the standings).

Coached by French manager Régis Le Bris and with Enzo Le Fée in their ranks, Sunderland, absent from the PL since the 2016-2017 season... will finally make their big return to the top tier of English football!

The Black Cats claimed a 2-1 victory thanks to a goal by Tom Watson scored right at the very end of stoppage time... in the 96th minute!

Yet it was Sheffield who opened the scoring in the first half! Sunderland then equalized in the 77th minute thanks to a goal from Eliezer Mayenda, before this last-gasp winner in the dying seconds.

Two goals in twenty minutes allow this legendary English football club to return to the Premier League. The Black Cats are back!
