'Divine', 'Feels like a dream' - Sunderland fans react to 4-1 rout vs Doncaster Rovers

The Black Cats had the 28-year-old to thank as he dragged his side into a commanding 3-0 lead thanks to a hat-trick of first half headers, all of which were assisted by the superb Aiden McGeady.

Faint hopes of dramatic Rovers comeback were ignited shortly after the break when a Rovers shot cannoned off the post, off Lee Burge’s back, and into the Wearsiders’ net, but Wyke added a fourth just 60 seconds later when he nodded home yet another McGeady delivery.

Burge then made up for his unfortunate own goal by saving two Doncaster penalties, the first of which required a great deal more effort than Jason Lokilo’s somewhat timid second.
