London, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 27th May, 2018 ) :Fulham hit the Premier League promotion jackpot as Tom Cairney fired his 10-man team to a 1-0 win over Aston Villa in the Championship play-off final on Saturday.
Cairney struck with a cool finish in the first half at Wembley to earn Fulham a top-flight place worth an estimated �160 million ($213 million) windfall.
Slavisa Jokanovic's side played the last 20 minutes with 10 men after defender Denis Odi was sent off for a studs-up lunge on Jack Grealish. But they defended heroically to end the club's four-year exile from the Premier League.
