Luke O'Nien dropped to his knees at the full-time whistle at Wembley as emotion bubbled over. The Black Cats 'Mr. Versatile' has been through it all with Sunderland in recent years.
He could have left the club last year with his contract expiring in the midst of another play-off failure. But, he stuck around and has played a huge part in winning promotion back to the Championship.
O'Nien has suffered his fair share of injury problems during his stint on Wearside, but has always come back stronger. A shoulder injury has plagued his two recent campaigns but unlike previous play-off endeavours this one ended differently.
