WELL, WITH ALL THE BUILD-UP TO THIS MATCH, WHAT WITH THE SOUTHAMPTON “SPY-GATE” SHENNANIGANS AND MIDDLESBROUGH BEING REPLACED LATE IN THE DAY TO PLAY HULL CITY (THE TIGERS), IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP PLAY-OFFS, THE ATTENTION TO THIS MATCH WAS FULL-ON! MIDDLESBROUGH DID WELL STATISTICALLY, HAVING 67% POSSESSION, 3 CORNERS, AND 12 SHOTS WITH 1 ON-TARGET, BUT JUST COULDN’T QUITE REACH-THE-BACK-OF-THE-NET TODAY! HULL CITY HAD 1 CORNER, AND 9 SHOTS WITH 3 ON-TARGET, INCLUDING A STUNNER FROM OLI MCBURNIE IN STOPPAGE-TIME AT 90 +4 MINS., MEANING THAT HULL BEAT MIDDLESBROUGH 1 – 0, AND NOW PROGRESS INTO THE PREMIER LEAGUE! (IT WAS BOILING HOT OUT THERE, BUT MUCH CARE WAS TAKEN WITH BREAKS FOR THE TEAMS, WITH TOWELS AND WATER GIVEN TO THEM! HOW THEY WOULD HAVE COPED IN EXTRA TIME? THANKFULLY, THEY DIDN’T HAVE TO FIND OUT!😊) MANY CONGRATULATIONS TO HULL FOR REACHING THE PREMIER LEAGUE!
