Sheffield Wednesday fans will love what Barry Bannan did after Sheffield United lost the Championship play-off final.
Sheffield United got their afternoon at Wembley Stadium off to a perfect start, dominating Sunderland before taking the lead.
Gustavo Hamer was praised heavily for his role in the opening goal, and it looked as though the Blades would go on to dominate.
However, the Yorkshire outfit had a goal ruled out by VAR and only went in at half-time 1-0 up despite their dominance.
Chris Wilder’s men were lacklustre in the second half and lost 2-1 to Sunderland, much to the delight of Barry Bannan.

The Steel City derby has produced some excellent games in recent years, many of which have included Bannan.
Now, the midfielder has taken to social media to react to his club’s rivals missing out on promotion.
Bannan videoed himself on holiday, panning from a pool to a TV screen showing the aftermath of the Championship play-off final.
He said: “Lovely, lovely, lovely,” before turning to the TV and saying: “Oh that’s a shame, what a Saturday!”
