Ipswich Town 2-0 Huddersfield Town: Kieran McKenna’s Tractor Boys promoted to the Premier League after 22-year absence
There were thousands of Ipswich fans outside the ground prior to kick-off with smoke bombs and flares in abundance.
And the home side got off to a dominant start in front of an expectant crowd, pinning their opponent into their own half for the opening 20 minutes.
Axel Tuanzebe’s shot from just inside the penalty area was deflected past the Huddersfield post, George Hirst narrowly headed wide and Conor Chaplin’s 25-yard effort flew narrowly past Terriers goalkeeper Chris Maxwell’s left-hand post.
Burns headed the ball across the penalty area to an unmarked Chaplin but he misdirected his header.
Ipswich should have taken the lead following a breakaway in the 25th minute. Chaplin fed the ball through to Burns and he only had Maxwell to beat but fired wide.
But the Tractor Boys took the lead two minutes later through the same combination with an explosion of noise greeting the goal.
