Earlier this afternoon, Brentford reached the Championship play-off final with a 3-2 aggregate victory over Bournemouth.

Arnaut Danjuma put the Cherries in front on the afternoon, doubling their lead after Monday's 1-0 win at the Vitality Stadium.

Ivan Toney levelled from spot after Lloyd Kelly was harshly penalised for handball, before Bournmouth has Chris Mepham sent off for a professional foul.

Vitaly Janelt drew the tie level after the break before Marcus Forss won it for the Bees late on.

Here's reaction from Cherries boss Jonathan Woodgate to his side's defeat.

What a day of play-off football we're having!

Goals from Sunderland's front two Ross Stewart and Charlie Wyke have wiped out the 2-0 lead Lincoln took into this second leg.

The Imps are absolutely rocking, but as it stands, they're still in this.

They just haven't been able to live with the home team's physicality at the top end of the pitch.

Sunderland winger Aiden McGeady, absolutely full of confidence, takes a dip with a free-kick from 25 or so yards out but it flashes wide.

Into two minutes of time added on now.

Grant Leadbitter tries a shot from about 35 yards out.

It's straight at Lincoln goalkeeper Alex Palmer but the West Brom loanee drops it momentarily to cause a bit more consternation for the visitors.

He regains it quickly enough though.

Sunderland fans want a penalty but the referee isn't interested.

Imps goalkeeper Alex Palmer come racing way off his line and Ross Stewart goes down.

I'm not sure.

Lincoln's first real chance!

They open Sunderland up down the home side's right and the ball is cut back for Brennan Johnson but his low shot is blocked away.

Lincoln are a really young side, skipper Liam Bridcutt is the only player over 30 in their team.

They've been overwhelmed so far in this game and the lead they brought to Sunderland was gone after 32 minutes.

You feel they've got to get through to half-time without conceding again.

Sunderland midfielder Josh Scowen is the first man in the book after a foul in the middle of the park.

Sunderland fans are not happy as a couple of free-kick decisions go against their team.

There's no doubt having fans back in, even in small numbers, is making a difference to these games.

Jorge Grant whips the set piece in for the Imps but it's cleared.

Veteran Sunderland winger Aiden McGeady won almost 100 caps for Republic of Ireland and he is showing his class today.

He whips in another tempting low cross that is cleared for a corner.

McGeady takes that as well but Sunderland can't force an effort on target.

I'm still trying to get over that from Sunderland number nine Charlie Wyke.

He's got 30 goals this season and it looked like all the world that he was going to make it 31 and level this tie up.

Lincoln have been caught over-playing at the back twice now and I don't see Sunderland letting them off a third time.

HOW HAVE SUNDERLAND NOT SCORED THERE?!

Lincoln totally over play and Charlie Wyke is in behind the goalkeeper but he dallies on the ball and Lincoln scramble it away.

My word.

Lincoln can't get up the pitch at all at the moment.

They're just trying to weather this Sunderland storm as best they can.

Sunderland are rampant just now.

Lincoln play themselves into trouble at the back with the home team swarming all over them.

It's clear that Sunderland are going to have a lot of the ball in this game but Lincoln can't afford to start dropping off too deep.

In Tom Hopper up front the Imps have got a willing runner and Brennan Johnson and Morgan Rogers have got tremendous pace if they can get the ball forward.

All Sunderland in these opening exchanges.

They win a corner that Chris Maguire sends in and eventually Josh Scowen smashes into the sidenetting.

Sunderland winger Aiden McGeady swings in a very inviting deep free-kick but it just beats his on-rushing team-mates.

Lincoln midfielder Jorge Grant takes on the first shot of the day but the former Nottingham Forest man skews his effort from outside the area well wide.
