The Saxons under King Harold won the battle by beating the Viking army. They then marched south to Hastings and were beaten by a Norman army led by William who became known as the William the Conqueror.
Harold Godwinson was in charge of the saxons, Harald Hardraada was in charge of the vikings.
The vikings were not involved in the battle of Hastings. After the attack at Stamford bridge up north, the vikings went back home. it was only the Saxons and the Normans who were involved. The Normans were however descended from Viking invaders of France, "Nor-th-men", and the battle of Stamford Bridge certainly softened up Harold's Anglo-Saxons for Hastings.
