Ollie McBurnie scored in the fifth minute of stoppage time to give Hull City a 1-0 win over Middlesbrough at Wembley in the EFL Championship play-off final, clinching promotion to the Premier League. The decisive goal capped a tense match that followed a pre-match incident when one window of the Hull team bus was smashed en route to the stadium. Hull now secure the financial and sporting benefits of top-flight status and will be celebrated with a civic parade and reception on Monday 25 May.
