Dunk was sent off for two bookings late in the previous game at home to Derby County. That meant he missed the must-win match at Boro, which finished 1-1, and also the first leg of the Championship play-offs when Brighton lost 2-0 at Sheffield Wednesday.
Dunk was back – and scored – in the second leg but the Owls snatched a 1-1 draw to progress to the final at Wembley. A homegrown talent, who has been with the Seagulls since he was ten, the 25-year-old said missing out on going up to the Premier League last season was one of the worst moments in his career but promotion this year was something he would never forget.
