Football: Manchester United have pulled off a shock upset against Manchester City in the FA Cup Final at Wembly.
Southampton clinched promotion back to the Premier League after a one-year exile as Adam Armstrong sealed a 1-0 win against Leeds in the Championship playoff final on Sunday.
Financial experts Deloitte say Southampton could eventually bank $586 million if they avoid relegation next season. They will hope this success, celebrated by over 35,000 of their fans at Wembley, is the prelude to another lengthy spell among the elite.Man Utd stun City in wild FA Cup boilover as embattled coach hits back at sack reportsIn their first ever playoff final, Southampton made it three wins over Leeds this term despite finishing three points behind the Elland Road club in the regular season.
“I’m so pleased for the board because I was not an exciting appointment for them. I finished 10th at Swansea, but we had a really clear way of doing things at MK and here, so for them to take me on was really brave,” Martin said.“The team have been so brave. I’m really grateful and proud of them. They deserve it.
After losing their grip on an automatic promotion place that went instead to Ipswich, the three-time English champions remain without a win at Wembley since 1992. Cleverly eluding the Leeds offside trap with a well-timed run, Armstrong met Will Smallbone’s pass with a superb strike into the far corner from 12 yards.
