Wycombe are headed to the final!
The referee signals for full time and Ainsworth and his men are 90 minutes from the EFL Championship for the first time in club history!
Fleetwood dominated this match for large stretches, but their capitulation in the first leg is what cost them this tie. They'll have to wait another year for a shot at the second tier.
Congratulations to Wycombe as they deservedly take their place opposite Oxford one week from today. If their form is anything like it is over these two legs, the U's will have their work cut out.
That's all for now! I'm John Lupo thanking you for joining me. Congratulations again to Wycombe as they have reached the play-off final. Enjoy the rest of your night, everyone!

"We've got to be careful in the second leg (on Monday). It's only halftime in the tie and Fleetwood are a really good side. We've got to get it right on Monday and be performing at the same high levels.
"We have to show Fleetwood respect, though. We can't go into the second leg thinking the tie is over and we're going to Wembley."

"We've got to get ourselves in a position to win the game first and foremost. If we get ourselves in a position to win the game first and foremost, who knows what happens."
