Carew strike pushes Boro nearer the drop
There was to be no great escape for Middlesbrough as a 1-1 home draw with Aston Villa all but condemned Gareth Southgate's side to the drop.
Southgate was booed off the Riverside pitch at the end of a tense affair in which Boro gave everything but once again fell short.
Tuncay's glittering overhead strike combined with results elsewhere in the relegation battlefield had given Middlesbrough some hope.
But, in 90 minutes that summed up their season, a failure to finish off a sluggish Villa side led to nervousness, panic and then the inevitable equaliser by John Carew, which came courtesy of an accurate finish.
Boro's predicament means they must now win their remaining fixture at West Ham - and hope Newcastle lose at Villa and Hull concede a hatful at home to champions Manchester United.
