Sheffield Wednesday captain Glenn Loovens describes his side's passage into the Championship playoff final as a "big relief".

Sheffield Wednesday captain Glenn Loovens has described his side's 3-1 aggregate victory over Brighton & Hove Albion as a "big relief".

The Owls booked their place in the Championship playoff final courtesy of a 1-1 draw in the second leg at the Amex Stadium this evening, with Ross Wallace cancelling out Lewis Dunk's opener.

Loovens acknowledged that his side were not at their best as they held off a dominant Brighton, but believes that the result was the only thing that mattered.

"It is a big relief. It wasn't our best game but we don't care. We are there and we can enjoy it fully now," he told Sky Sports News.

"The spirit has been good all season - not only the players but everyone involved."

Brighton are likely to face Hull City in the final at Wembley on May 28, with the Tigers 3-0 up at the halfway stage of their semi-final tie against Derby County.
