The striker pounced on a fumble from goalkeeper Sol Brynn to slam home from close range, sending the travelling amber horde into delirium and booking the Tigers’ return to the Premier League for the first time in nine years.\n\nThe build-up to the final had been anything but conventional, dominated by the extraordinary ‘Spygate’ saga. Middlesbrough were only confirmed as Hull’s opponents less than 72 hours before kick-off after Southampton were expelled from the competition, with a rejected appeal late on Wednesday night finally clearing the path for Boro. Despite that chaotic preamble, Michael Carrick’s side arrived at Wembley in defiant mood, but it was Hull who would celebrate under the arch.\n\nThe first half was a tense, tactical affair typical of a promotion decider. Neither side carved out a clear-cut opportunity until the stroke of half-time, when Ryan Giles delivered a teasing cross that McBurnie met with a firm header, only to see the ball cannon back off the crossbar. That narrow escape served as a warning for Middlesbrough, but the deadlock remained intact.\n\nThe second period followed a similar pattern, with both teams cautious and the game seemingly drifting towards extra-time. Hull, however, found a late spark. In the fifth minute of added time, substitute Yu Hirakawa whipped a dangerous cross into the box. Brynn could only parry the ball into the path of the lurking McBurnie, who kept his composure to slot home and spark wild celebrations in front of the Boro supporters.\n\nMcBurnie, who had joined Hull from Las Palmas at the start of the season, struggled to articulate his emotions after the final whistle. “I’m at a loss for words,” he said, his voice thick with emotion. “It’s been such a long, tough season and the match just seemed to capture everything about us. We knew we weren’t going to dominate the ball — honestly, I can’t remember a game this year where we won with more possession. The heat was draining, but we always believed we could nick it.”\n\nThe triumph marks a remarkable turnaround for Hull City, who only survived relegation the previous season on goal difference. Under the guidance of manager Rubén Sellés, they overcame a transfer embargo and entered the final day of the regular campaign outside the play-off places, yet snatched sixth spot before navigating their way past the semi-finals. By beating Middlesbrough, they became the first team to finish sixth and win the play-offs since Blackpool in 2010.\n\nFor Middlesbrough, the defeat is a bitter pill to swallow after the emotional rollercoaster of ‘Spygate’. The Teessiders had lost on the pitch in their semi-final against Southampton, but were reinstated when the Saints were punished. Yet they could not capitalise on their reprieve, and now face another season in the second tier, with the painful memory of a Wembley heartbreak to fuel their future efforts.\n\nHull’s promotion carries significant financial and sporting weight. The Tigers will now benefit from the Premier League’s lucrative broadcast revenues and parachute payments, which could transform the club’s trajectory. On the pitch, they will aim to avoid the immediate drop that has befallen many play-off winners and establish themselves in the top flight.\n\nThe narrative of the day will forever belong to McBurnie. Having left Spain’s Gran Canaria to return to English football, he had spoken from day one about not wanting his move to be part of a “mediocre project.” That ambition has been vindicated in the most dramatic fashion, and his stoppage-time intervention will be replayed for years to come.\n\nWhile it may not have matched the spectacular long-range strikes that sealed Hull’s previous play-off final triumphs – Dean Windass in 2008 and Mo Diame in 2016 – McBurnie’s poacher’s finish was equally momentous. It delivered the Tigers back to the promised land and etched his name alongside those Wembley heroes.\n\nBased on reporting from Sky Sports.","news","Oli McBurnie scored a 95th-minute winner as Hull City beat Middlesbrough 1-0 in the Championship play-off final to secure Premier League return after nine years","333682258533683201","326135644956921856","UEFA Champions League Women","0","2026-05-23T17:48:00Z","hull-city-promoted-mcburnie-nets-95th-minute-winner","Sky Sports","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.skysports.com\u002Ffootball\u002Fhull-city-vs-middlesbrough\u002Freport\u002F555960","326257808125202432","Hull City",[74,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87],"326257637979066368","326257534430089216","326257536078450688","326257808385249280","326222712462643200","326257809152806912","326257534329425920","326257545712766976","326257546392244224","326257808251031552","326257807630274560",[75,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99],"Las Palmas","Eintracht Frankfurt","Paris Saint Germain","Sheffield Wednesday","Bosnia & Herzegovina","Milton Keynes Dons","Borussia Dortmund","Manchester United","Nottingham Forest","Middlesbrough","Southampton","Hull City Promoted: McBurnie Nets 95th-Minute Winner",[102,139,152,161],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":64,"excerpt":103,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":104,"leagueId":67,"leagueName":68,"matchId":69,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":105,"slug":106,"sourceName":72,"sourceURL":107,"teamId":108,"teamName":109,"teamIds":110,"teamNames":124,"title":138},"PSG exit clears path for Arsenal to sign Bournemouth's Kroupi.
