Southampton Return to Premier League After Playoff Win
Southampton have sealed promotion back to the Premier League after a 1-0 victory over Leeds United in the Championship playoff final at Wembley
The Saints secured a return to the top flight after a season that saw them finish third in the Championship
Southampton will return to the Premier League in the 2024/25 season after beating Leeds United in extra-time, thanks to James Ward-Prowse's goal.
The Saints controlled much of the game and should have opened the scoring when Stuart Armstrong hit the post on the stroke of half-time.
Leeds nearly snatched a winner but Jack Harrison's 90th-minute strike was cleared off the line.
Southampton started the stronger and James Ward-Prowse was their dangerman. He had their first shot on goal when he fired a 25-yard free-kick goalwards but it went over the bar.
