77 photos of loyal Sunderland fans against Sheffield Wednesday as Wearside pays tribute to Charlie Hurley

Sunderland were beaten 2-0 by Sheffield Wednesday in their final game of the season – and our cameras were in attendance to capture the action.

The Black Cats fell a goal down in the 29th minute when Liam Palmer opened the scoring after an excellent pass from Barry Bannan. The visitors then doubled their advantage nine minutes later when Josh Windass converted Pol Valentin’s cross.

Before and during the game, Sunderland fans paid tribute to the late Charlie Hurley after The King’s sad passing last week.

Here, we take a look at the best photos of Sunderland fans throughout the day:
