Hull sink Millwall to reach Championship play-off final

Hull produced a clinical display at Millwall to win 2-0 in the second leg and reach the Championship play-off final.

After a goalless first leg, the deadlock was finally broken by Mohamed Belloumi midway through the second half at The Den. Substitute Joe Gelhardt then added a second to steer the Tigers to Wembley - with the final on Saturday May 23.

It continues a remarkable campaign for Hull City, who have become the first sixth-placed side in seven years to win their semi-final.

They only stayed up on the final day of last season, and have been under a transfer embargo this season under Sergej Jakirovic.

Having also started the final day of the season outside the play-off places, they are now just one game away from returning to the Premier League for the first time since 2017. They have been down in League One for a season since then as well.

It took until the 64th minute of the second leg for the deadlock to finally be broken. Belloumi was found by Matt Crooks and he cut inside in the box to curl home a brilliant opener.

And 15 minutes later the tie was sealed. This time a clinical counter. Once again Belloumi at the heart of it, as he raced forward before skidding a ball across the box for Gelhardt.

He had just been introduced as a sub, but showed incredible composure to hit a low shot that squirmed through the hands of Anthony Patterson and over the line.

The away end behind the goal erupted. The three home stands left devastated. But on the balance of play, particularly in the second leg, Hull were well worthy of the win.

The £250,000 is up for grabs with Super 6, and as always it is completely free to play. Entries by 3pm Saturday.
