Gary Lineker's instant reaction as Fulham seal instant promotion to the Premier League – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Fulham are back in the English Premier League after winning the Championship play-offs final at the expense of Brentford.
Joe Bryan was the hero of the night, scoring twice with his two shots on target in both halves of extra time to hand Scott Parker’s side a crucial 2-0 victory.
Fulham were the better side from start to finish and at both ends of the pitch, but they couldn’t find a way to score with their best finisher on the bench.
Aleksandar Mitrovic was thrown into action towards the end of normal time, but it was a defender that delivered the goods.
BBC Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker is happy to have Fulham back in the EPL, reacting thus on Twitter after they sealed an immediate return to the English top-flight.
Congratulations to @FulhamFC on winning promotion. Great to have you back on @BBCMOTD.
