A SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY fan who ripped up his ticket for his side's play-off miracle against Peterborough has gone viral.

Darren Moore's men were thumped 4-0 in their semi-final first leg last week.

But the Owls staged an incredible turnaround at Hillsborough on Thursday evening.

Leading 4-0 after 90 minutes and 5-1 after extra-time, they booked their spot at Wembley with a 5-3 victory on penalties.

And the result brought about the re-emergence of a clip from Wednesday fan Josh Jackson ripping up his ticket after the first-leg loss.

He can be seen tearing up the paper before putting two fingers up to the camera.

It now looks like a foolish decision given the breathtaking second leg.

But he took it all in his stride when one social media user asked: "How are you feeling now mate? ????????"

To which he replied: "On top of the world."

Reacting to the original video, one person responded: "Live and learn. It’s a long journey."

While another added: "His act willed his team to perform. He must be ecstatic!!"

Sheffield Wednesday, who narrowly missed out on automatic promotion, will now face either Bolton or Barnsley in the play-off final on May 29.

They are bidding to return to the Championship after two seasons in the third tier.
