Patrick Roberts and Luke O'Nien star as Sunderland beat Shrewsbury in FA Cup third round

And when Matt Pennington headed the Shrews in front 10 minutes from time with a goal that came completely against the run of play, it looked as though it would be enough to dump Sunderland out of the cup.

First, sub Ross Stewart headed them level in the 92nd minutes. And then two minutes later Luke O'Nien completed the turnaround when he scored the winner.
