The 2022 Papa Johns Trophy belongs to Rotherham United after a topsy-turvy 4-2 win over Sutton United at Wembley.
For much of the contest EFL debutants Sutton belied the 34 places between the two sides as they came close to a famous victory over the League One leaders. They led 2-1 going into stoppage time only for Rotherham to level and send the game to extra time. Chiedozie Ogbene then scored a superb goal for the Millers before Michael Ihiekwe's stooping header made sure of the win.
Sutton, experiencing their first-ever taste of this competition, took the lead on the half-hour mark when Donovan Wilson found enough space in the box to take a touch and pick his spot. Ben Wiles hit a spectacular long-range effort to level matters for Rotherham before the break. But Sutton skipper and former Arsenal man Craig Eastmond restored Sutton's lead just minutes after the restart when he reacted quickest in the area after his initial effort was charged down.
