    Thanks for joining me for that nerve jangling second leg - a clash of styles that personifies the play-offs.

    I'm calling it quits for the night, but I'm sure Wycombe fans will be singing for several hours yet.

    We'll be back on Monday for the second leg of Sheffield Wednesday v Sunderland - which promises to be just as close.

    Faces of sheer delight on the pitch and in the stands.

    Adebayo Akinfenwa, in the bottom picture, didn't come on today but he was with his team-mates all the way.

    He celebrates a big birthday in two days - 40. He brings his long career to an end on the completion of this season.

    How amazing would it be to see him bow out under the arch at Wembley?

    Wycombe will find out their opponents for the League One play-off final on Monday - as Sunderland go to Sheffield Wednesday with a slender 1-0 first-leg advantage.

    That one is in the balance - whoever wins that tie is sure to sell out their Wembley allocation.

    We've put so much into this season. Two years ago people thought it was a fluke when we went up, but we're proving people wrong. Now we want to go to Wembley and prove even more people wrong.

    It could all have been so different for MK Dons this evening, Troy Parrott's first half goal looked like it might have set them on the way to a memorable comeback.

    But Wycombe had that vital two-goal lead from the first leg and they've made it count.

    I'm relieved because that game felt so, so long. Let's be honest, it was wave after wave of attack from them. We hoped to grind it out and that's what we did - I'm so buzzing.

    The Wycombe players are celebrating in front of their jubilant fans in the away end.

    They've put on a defensive masterclass today and they'll be a tough nut to crack for whoever faces them on Saturday, 21 May.

    It's a painful end for MK Dons, who finished third in the league - just one point below an automatic play-off spot.

    But they will be playing their football in League One again next season.

    You've got to say fair play and well done to Gareth Ainsworth and David Stockdale, who didn't run to their fans on full-time but shook hands with MK Dons players to commiserate them.

    That's it!

    Wycombe are going to Wembley!

    What a night at Stadium MK - it's despair for MK Dons, they've given it everything tonight but Wycombe have been unbreakable in their defence.

    They win 2-1 over the two legs and will face either Sunderland or Sheffield Wednesday at the home of football.

    Another great run by Theo Corbeanu but Wycombe have defended so well all evening.

    Troy Parrott sends a fierce drive but it's straight at David Stockdale.

    Wycombe have a free-kick and the fans know it's almost over.

    Scott Twine sends the free-kick over and he's fuming with himself.

    It was a lovely position and he can't get it up and down.

    Just two minutes to go!

    Five minutes added on as MK Dons win another corner - I make that 18!

    Twine whips it in but it's defended well by the home side.

    But hang on, Dons have a free-kick in Scott Twine territory...

  13. ouch!

    The home side are really going for it now, Connor Wickham sends a delightful ball across the box but there's no-one there to tap the ball in.

    He's on the end of a painful one from Joe Jacobson and Dons win another corner from the free-kick.

    MK Dons 1-0 Wycombe (agg: 1-2)

    A mad moment - Wycombe almost score just seconds after MK Dons are turned down with a penalty appeal.

    Scott Twine's goalbound effort was blocked with what looked like a Wycombe defender's hand but again it would have been very harsh.

    The referee waved away the appeal and David Stockdale launched the ball upfield for Sam Vokes to chase. The big striker looked to have done everything right as he ran through but couldn't get the shot away.

    The away supporters are right up in the corner but you wouldn't think it - they're bouncing now.

    They've cheered their players on all the way through what, at times, has been an absolute onslaught.

    Dons look for Connor Wickham with their 15th corner - they've not made enough of the set plays since hitting the bar right at the start of the game and this one is no different.

    Theo Corbeanu's effort goes behind for a goal kick.

    MK Dons haven't looked like scoring in the last 15 minutes but the pressure's still been on and that's what they're going to be counting on.

    They'll just be looking to keep Wycombe sewn into their own half and keep asking the question - that's all they can do.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 76 mins

    Here we go... it's Wickham v Wycombe!

    Connor Wickham comes on in place of Hiram Boateng, who assisted the Dons goal in the first half.

    The Chairboys are 15 minutes away from a Wembley final.

  20. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 75 mins

    MK Dons 1-0 Wycombe (agg: 1-2)

    Yet another Dons corner is headed away and the hosts want a penalty for a handball.

    It didn't look like there was too much in it. Nothing doing.
