Hull City promoted to Premier League after beating Middlesbrough in Wembley play-off final
- Hull City secured promotion to the Premier League after defeating Middlesbrough F.C. 1–0 in the Championship play-off final at Wembley, with Oli McBurnie scoring the winning goal in stoppage time.
- The match was largely cautious and low-scoring, with Middlesbrough controlling more possession but struggling to create clear chances, while Hull defended effectively and capitalized late on a goalkeeping error.
- The final took place amid controversy following Southampton’s removal from the playoffs over a “Spygate” investigation, which led to Middlesbrough being reinstated into the final shortly before the match.
