Hull City are heading back to the Premier League after defeating Middlesbrough 1-0 in the Championship playoff final at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

The victory sealed promotion for Hull, who emerged victorious from one of English football's most high-stakes one-off matches — a Wembley showpiece that decides the final spot in the top flight.

Middlesbrough, meanwhile, must regroup and prepare for another season in the Championship after falling short at the final hurdle.
