Despite a tightly-contested second half, both teams missed chances, with Wrexham's Ollie Rathbone seeing his strike saved at the start of the half and Josh Windass also blasting over in the latter stages of the contest.Wrexham's disappointment was compounded by the fact Hull's winning goal, scored by Ollie McBurnie in the 67th minute, appeared as if it should have been ruled out for a narrow offside.ChampionshipChampions: CoventryPromoted: IpswichPlayoffs: Millwall, Middlesbrough, Southampton, HullRelegated: Sheffield Wednesday, Leicester, OxfordLeague OneChampions: LincolnPromoted: CardiffRelegated: Northampton, Rotherham, Port ValeLeague TwoPromoted: Bromley, MK DonsNational LeaguePromoted: YorkRelegated: Truro, Braintree, Morecambe, Brackley
