Manchester United youngster Amad made his final appearance of his Sunderland loan spell on Tuesday night as they were beaten 2-0 by Luton Town in the second leg of their Championship play-off semi-final at Kenilworth Road.
First half goals from centre-backs Gabriel Osho and Tom Lockyer sealed Luton's passage to their first-ever EFL play-off final as they recovered from behind to prevail 3-2 on aggregate.
The Hatters had lost the first leg 2-1 at the Stadium of Light on Saturday. For Amad, though, it was a gut-wrenching ending to what had been a magical loan spell for the Ivorian.
He joined the Black Cats, who were pursuing a second successive promotion, on loan from United last August and played a key role in their unexpected play-off charge.
