The trip was tricky for Burnley in Boro, with the possibility of validating his promotion to the top flight.
Middlesbrough welcomed Burnley on the occasion of the 40th day of the Championship.
The very long season is slowly coming to an end, and Burnley had the opportunity to mathematically ensure their promotion to the elite in the event of victory, once morest an opponent also in the race for the climb.
Things started well for the troops of Vincent Kompanywith a quick goal from Barnes (12th).
After the break, however, Akpom (ex-STVV) equalized from the penalty spot (48th). But Roberts (66th) restored the lead to the Clarets, also synonymous with the winning goal.
Time to party now for the Clarets, who are sure to find the elite one season following leaving it. The celebration shouldn’t end here, as they’re aiming for the title.
Promotion back to the #PL at the first attempt! ????
We’ll see you soon, @BurnleyOfficial! Congratulations! pic.twitter.com/eMagjOLgM8
