Floodlight failure, last-minute equaliser, extra-time winner and a pitch invasion… last night’s League Two play-off semi-final second leg between Accrington Stanley and AFC Wimbledon had everything.
And that was before Sky Sports pundit Ian Holloway got around to his post-match analysis.
Giant Wimbledon striker and all-round cult hero Adebayo Akinfenwa came off the bench to head home the 90th minute goal that made the score 2-1 on the night and 2-2 on aggregate.
Lyle Taylor’s 104th minute winner was enough to send Wimbledon to the Wembley final against Plymouth.
Akinfenwa, nicknamed “The Beast”, is a firm fan favourite and the 16-stone striker, who once scored against Liverpool, is considered the strongest footballer in the world.
Former Blackpool manager Holloway has a theory on how Akinfenwa got so big: he ate his won twin.
