Steve Morison on the money to fire Millwall back to the Championship
The veteran striker struck the winner with five minutes left at Wembley.
Steve Morison fired a late Wembley winner to clinch Millwall a 1-0 victory against Bradford in the Sky Bet League One play-off final.
The veteran striker stole in at the far post as the tie appeared destined for extra-time to grab an 85th-minute winner and end the Londoners’ two-year absence from the Championship.
It was the evergreen Morison’s 19th goal of the season and in a stroke expunged the memory of last season’s play-off final defeat to Barnsley.
Bradford, beaten by Millwall in the semi-finals last season, had looked the more likely to break the deadlock but Neil Harris’ side were rewarded for another never-say-die performance.

Star man – Steve Morison
Millwall’s man for the big occasion did not disappoint. He had hardly had a sniff of goal all game but was on hand to tuck in the winner five minutes from time.

Shaun Williams sent a cross in from the left, Lee Gregory nodded it on and there was Morison to send the blue half of Wembley wild.
Moan of the match
