Story updated
The story in brief
27-second readMiddlesbrough celebrated their 150th anniversary game in style as Will Lankshear's second-half header secured a 1-0 victory over Wolves at the Riverside Stadium.
This is Boro's 150th season since the club was founded to enable the cricketers from Middlesbrough Cricket Club to play an alternative sport in the winter months, and the game with Wolves was selected as the official anniversary fixture.
A sold-out crowd helped mark the occasion, six days after a host of former players returned to the Riverside for a Legacy Game, and Lankshear's header from Tommy Conway's cross ensured the home fans went home happy.
