English-born Ghanaian forward Jesurun Rak-Sakyi came off the bench to feature in Sheffield United's 3-0 win over Bristol City in the English Championship playoffs.
The on-loan Crystal Palace attacker has scored seven goals and provided two assists in 35 appearances for the Blades in the ongoing season's campaign.
Sheffield United cruised into the Championship play-off final with a thumping 6-0 aggregate win over Bristol City.
The Blades, who won the first leg 3-0 at Ashton Gate on Thursday, started slowly but took the lead on the night when Kieffer Moore headed in Harrison Burrows' corner kick before the break.
Gus Hamer added to their advantage with a deflected long-range shot from a corner routine which found him in acres of space at the edge of the area, and substitute Callum O'Hare slammed home his side's sixth of the semi-final.
Chris Wilder's men will now face either Sunderland or Coventry City in the play-off final at Wembley on Saturday, 24 May as they look to secure an immediate return to the Premier League.
Sheffield United's victory, by a record scoreline for a play-off semi-final at this level, means that the team who finished third in the regular season have progressed to the Championship play-off final in nine of the past 10 seasons.
From beleaguered to the brink of promotion
The Blades suffered a dismal relegation from the Premier League in the 2023-24 season but have enjoyed an excellent campaign this time around. They led the league going into the final seven games only for a run of four defeats from five in April to consign them to third place and the play-offs.
Much of the damage in this semi-final was done in the first leg when Rob Dickie's red card gave them a penalty kick that Burrows scored before the break and subs Andre Brooks and O'Hare added to.
City, needing to achieve something no team has done in play-off history and recover from losing the first leg at home by a margin of three goals, made an encouraging start but Scott Twine miscued their best opening.
United grew into it and got the first goal of the night when Moore was able to hold off a defender and head in from a corner kick with goalkeeper Max O'Leary unable to get to the ball first.
That ended any incredibly faint hopes that Liam Manning's side had and the Blades' second of the night summed up their semi-final.
First they coughed up possession on the halfway line to allow the home side to break on them, then they failed to pick up Hamer at the edge of the area and his effort then took a huge deflection to go in the far corner.
O'Hare, a beaten play-off finalist with Coventry two years ago, scored his second of the tie when Burrows added to his two assists of the night by stepping over Tyrese Campbell's low cross into the penalty area to allow the midfielder to convert first time.
The South Yorkshire side have failed in all nine of their previous play-off campaigns and will look to end their hoodoo a week on Saturday.
