Watch Aiden McGeady's stunning strike and passionate celebration as Sunderland take the lead at Wembley
Sunderland have struck first in the Checkatrade Trophy final - with Aiden McGeady handing the Black Cats a 1-0 lead.
The winger curled home a free-kick - which looked to take a slight deflection off Portsmouth striker Omar Bogle - to hand the Wearsiders a half-time lead.
It was just rewards for Jack Ross' side, who were dominant throughout and applied plenty of pressure to their south coast opposition.
