    Another penalty shout for the Owls not given. George Byers goes down in the box from a Barry Bannan free-kick. I haven't seen a replay to see if he has a point or not.

    Wednesday are adamant they should have had a penalty for that potential handball by Dennis Cirkin.

    The home support feel a lot of decisions have gone against them this evening and they're being quite vocal about it.

    Barry Bannan's corner is over the goalkeeper and an Owls attacker but it's cleared.

    A free corner for the Owls basically as Dennis Cirkin mis-kicks the ball behind.

    It's near half-time. Sunderland need to show a bit of experience and composure to see the game out.

    Sheff Wed 0-0 Sunderland (agg 0-1)

    Sheffield Wednesday fans are shouting for a penalty, over 30,000 of them.

    Barry Bannan has a shot blocked and the ball lands to Josh Windass in the box. Dennis Cirkin goes down and Windass falls over him. This could go either way but referee says no.

    Another Wednesday opportunity as Barry Bannan (yet again) puts a cross into the box - this time it's a free-kick - and Harlee Dean heads over.

    They will have to take one of these chances eventually.

    Wow, that would have been one of the great play-off goals. Barry Bannan's corner is half-cleared and comes back into the box.

    George Byers controls the ball on his chest up into the air and hits a lovely bicycle kick which is saved by the keeper.

    Rivaldo v Valencia vibes.

    Barry Bannan whips in a great ball from the right and it's headed behind for an Owls corner before Lee Gregory can get there.

    A good run by Sunderland's Jack Clarke into the box, he beats Jack Hunt but then his shot is blocked.

    A draw will be enough to send the Black Cats to Wembley remember.

    Alex Pritchard gives the ball to Patrick Roberts and makes the run into the box but Roberts can't pick him out. The Sunderland attacking players haven't done too much so far.

    The home fans are not having that Barry Bannan booking at all.

    I mean, they haven't seen replays to be fair to them.

    The Wednesday skipper couldn't get into the game on Friday and he's not been allowed to really dictate things so far today either.

    Graham Gee: Thought it was against league / FA rules for both sides to wear the same - in this case black - coloured shorts??? Strange.

    Almost a Owls chance. Marvin Johnson pings the ball over to Jack Hunt on the other side. His cross hits a Sunderland defender and then Lee Gregory and bobbles wide of the far post.
