Emotional Sunderland fan pictures as Regis Le Bris' side secure dramatic late winner against Torreense - gallery

Fan pictures as Noah Sadiki scored a last-gasp winner for Sunderland in the Europa League.

Noah Sadiki scored a last-gasp winner for Sunderland in the Europa League as they came from behind to beat Torreense 2-1 in Leiria - and the travelling 4,000 fans went wild.

Timur Tutierov had a goal ruled out for the Black Cats, who were unable to capitalise on their dominant first-half display, and the second division Portuguese side pounced, going ahead before the break thanks to a stunning top-corner finish from Volnei Feltes. Sunderland had a flurry of chances after the restart, eventually levelling through Jules Ahoka’s header, and they continued to have opportunities until the death, with Sadiki snatching a stoppage-time winner on the half-volley.
