BREAKING: Hull earn £200m Premier League place with last-gasp Middlesbrough win after Spygate drama

Hull City have been promoted to the Premier League in the most dramatic fashion. Oli McBurnie scored in stoppage time to see the Tigers past Middlesbrough and back to the top flight.

It was only the second shot on target of a drab affair under the Wembley arch in searing heat. McBurnie finished from close range to send the travelling City fans into raptures.

Yu Hirakawa crossed the ball in from the left flank and Boro keeper Sol Brynn could only parry the ball into McBurnie's path who couldn't miss with the goal at his mercy.

It rounds off a dramatic fortnight following the Spygate scandal which ultimately saw Southampton expelled from the playoffs.

Middlesbrough only learned they would be playing in the playoff final on Tuesday after Saints were sensationally kicked out by the EFL.

Southampton appealed but that was thrown out on Wednesday evening giving Boro two days to prepare in the knowledge they would definitely be facing Hull under the arch.

It came after a Saints intern was caught red-handed filming a Middlesbrough training session from behind a tree prior to the first leg of their semi-final at the Riverside.

That game finished goalless, but Southampton won the second leg to book their place at Wembley before the EFL stepped in. Saints also admitted to spying on Oxford and Ipswich during the regular season.
