Newcastle United and Norwich City were consigned from the Premier League on Wednesday as Sunderland secured their survival with an uneven 3-0 triumph over Everton.
Sunderland focus back Lamine Kone's initial two objectives for the club and a Patrick van Aanholt free-kick took Sam Allardyce's side four focuses clear of peril with one diversion remaining.
Norwich came back to the Championship a year after advancement notwithstanding a 4-2 win over Watford, while Newcastle, Sunderland's most outstanding adversaries, will play in the second level surprisingly since 2010.
"It's the disposition of the players who assimilate the weight and convey an execution like that," said Allardyce.
"That is what's happened in the course of the last 10 diversions one and only thrashing. It's really inexplicable. To the chaps and all the staff, much thanks."
It is the fourth season in succession that Sunderland have pulled off a late escape to maintain a strategic distance from assignment and it promises the upper east club top-flight football for a tenth back to back season.
Allardyce was the planner of their surge to security, succeeding the sacked Dick Advocaat in October and directing a late-season run that has seen them take 11 focuses from a conceivable 15.
Having seen his side originated from 2-0 down to beat active champions Chelsea 3-2 on their past excursion, Allardyce kept confidence with the same beginning XI for the seventh amusement running.
His side proceeded when Everton goalkeeper Joel Robles misconceived Van Aanholt's 38th-minute free-kick, moving to one side and permitting the ball to ricochet straight past him.
Kone made it 2-0 four minutes after the fact, volleying in earnestly after Sunderland neglected to clear a corner, and crushed in his second in the 55th moment when Robles spilled Wahbi Khazri's corner.
The outcome at the Stadium of Light additionally served to expand the weight on Everton director Roberto Martinez, whose twelfth spot side have won only one of their last 10 association matches.
Alex Neil's Norwich improved of Watford in a ding-dong challenge at Carrow Road, however Sunderland's win implied that they would have been consigned notwithstanding.
After Troy Deeney had tapped in Odion Ighalo's eleventh moment cross to put Watford head, Norwich hit back through Nathan Redmond, Dieumerci Mbokani and a Craig Cathcart own objective.
Deeney gave back where its due for Ighalo as Watford diminished the overdue debts six minutes into the second half, however Redmond teed up Mbokani to reestablish Norwich's two-objective pad six minutes after the fact.
"Clearly it's a serious frustration," said Neil, the Norwich administrator.
"We've known it would have been a truly troublesome undertaking. We had it in our grasp three, four, five diversions back, yet tragically we missed the mark."
Newcastle went down regardless of the best endeavors of supervisor Rafael Benitez, who was selected in March after Steve McClaren was sacked.
The previous Liverpool and Real Madrid director started an upturn in both results and exhibitions, yet any desires for a sensational getaway from the last three were lethally undermined by last Saturday's 0-0 draw at as of now consigned Aston Villa.
