Extra-time goals from Lee Trundle and Michael McIndoe have sent Bristol City into the Coca-Cola Championship play-off final

Crystal Palace's promotion hopes ended with the 2-1 loss at Ashton Gate.

Trundle's left-footed curling effort in the 104th minute and McIndoe's drilled free-kick five minutes later ensured Gary Johnson's side will face either Hull or Watford on May 24

Ben Watson's first-half header had drawn Palace level on aggregate follow City's 2-1 win on Saturday, but the Eagles midfielder turned from hero to villain when he missed a penalty with 18 minutes remaining.

That forced extra time but Trundle's left-footed curling effort in the 104th minute and McIndoe's drilled free-kick five minutes later ensured Gary Johnson's side will face either Hull or Watford on May 24 for a place in the Barclays Premier League.

It was a first play-off semi-final defeat in six attempts for Palace boss Neil Warnock but he could have few complaints over City progressing.
