The Tractor Boys beat Huddersfield 2-0 at Portman Road to secure an historic back-to-back promotion.
Ipswich Town have been promoted to the Premier League after 22 years out of the top flight. The Tractor Boys beat Huddersfield 2-0 at Portman Road to secure a second successive promotion, having finished runners-up to Plymouth in League One last season. Kieran McKenna's side already had a three-point advantage over third-placed Leeds going into the final game of the season and only needed a draw to secure promotion from the Championship.
Thousands of Ipswich fans gathered outside the ground before kick-off with some setting off smoke bombs and flares. The expectant home crowd watched their team pin the opposition in their own half in the opening 20 minutes and Ipswich should have taken the lead following a breakaway in the 25th minute.
