Mo Belloumi and Joe Gelhardt emerged from the bench to fire Hull City into Wembley as they beat Millwall in their Championship play-off semi-final second leg at The Den.

Belloumi, introduced in the first half after Kyle Joseph was forced off injured, produced the breakthrough after 64 minutes when he cut inside and curled a superb effort in off the far post to finally separate the sides after a goalless first leg.

How Hull secured the victory

Sergej Jakirovic's substitutions proved decisive once again as Gelhardt struck less than a minute after coming on, drilling a low finish beyond the reach of Millwall goalkeeper Anthony Patterson.

Hull ended the regular season 10 points behind third-placed Millwall but are now on course to preserve their perfect Championship play-off record, having previously won promotion through the play-offs in 2007-08 and 2015-16.

The Tigers will face Southampton or Middlesbrough in the final at Wembley on Saturday, 23 May, with a place in next season's Premier League at stake alongside Coventry City and Ipswich Town.

Saints and Boro meet in the second leg on Tuesday after the sides played out a 0-0 draw in the opening encounter.
