"Mohamed Belloumi broke the deadlock in the tie in the 64th minute when he found the far corner with an unerring strike into the far corner. And Belloumi then turned provider 15 minutes later as his cross-field ball found Joe Gelhardt, whose low drive snuck through the hands of Anthony Patterson."
"[We] knew it was going to be a tough time over two legs. It's pretty typical of our season. Nobody fancied us last season and we've proved them wrong again. I think we can enjoy tonight. We've got a week and a half so we can have some enjoyment tonight and get back to it in a couple of days."
"We didn't do well enough. We didn't stick well enough, You've got to give credit to Hull, I think they defended well, but as an attacking force, we didn't have enough in the 90 minutes. I don't think right now, as raw as it is, is the time to think about what we didn't do three weeks ago [not getting into automatics]. You just as feel as if it's a disappointment, I feel I've let people down and that's my overriding emotion."
Hull City secured a Championship play-off final spot by defeating Millwall 2-0 in South London after drawing 0-0 in the first leg. Mohamed Belloumi opened the scoring in the 64th minute with a strike into the far corner. He then set up the second goal 15 minutes later with a cross-field pass that found Joe Gelhardt, whose low drive slipped through Anthony Patterson’s hands. Hull had finished 10 points behind Millwall in the regular season and missed automatic promotion by one point, yet they overcame the deficit in the play-offs. Oli McBurnie praised the team’s ability to silence doubters, while Millwall manager Alex Neil cited insufficient attacking output and defensive shortcomings.
