Middlesbrough SnSnatchatch Dramatic Late Win at The Hawthorns

16 January 2026 Middlesbrough pulled off a thrilling 3-2 victory over West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns on Thursday, thanks to a last-gasp strike from Delano Burgzorg. The win marked a dramatic start to life under new Baggies boss Eric Ramsay, who witnessed his side concede a decisive goal in the final moments. Middlesbrough took the lead in first-half stoppage time, albeit controversially, as a West Brom own goal by Connor Taylor handed the visitors the advantage. The second half saw Sam Silvera extend Boro’s lead in the 58th minute, demonstrating his growing influence in the Championship this season. West Brom responded with two quickfire goals from Isaiah Price (75’) and John Wallace (80’), giving the home fans hope for a late turnaround. However, Burgzorg’s 90th-minute strike, assisted by Silvera, snatched victory for the visitors and ensured Boro left the West Midlands with all three points. The result continues Middlesbrough’s strong form against West Brom, having also claimed victories in their previous encounters, including a 2-1 win in September 2025. The win propels Boro further up the Championship table, while West Brom will look to regroup after a tough introduction under Ramsay’s management. Key Takeaways: Burgzorg’s stoppage-time goal proved decisive. Sam Silvera was instrumental, scoring and assisting in the win. West Brom’s late rally fell short despite two second-half goals. Middlesbrough now turn their attention to their next Championship fixture, seeking to maintain momentum in a tightly contested league, while West Brom will look to bounce back on home soil.
