Ipswich Town celebrate promotion to the Premier League as goals from Wes Burns and Omari Hutchinson clinch automatic promotion against Huddersfield Town
Ipswich Town completed a fairytale return to the Premier League after a 2-0 victory at home to Huddersfield Town in a result which confirmed the visitors’ relegation from the Sky Bet Championship.
A packed out Portman Road was rocking as Kieran McKenna’s side became the first team to complete back-to-back promotions from the second tier since Southampton in 2011/12 by claiming the second automatic promotion place ahead of Leeds United with a goal in each half, from Wes Burns and Omari Hutchinson.
The Yorkshire side had gone into their home game with The Saints knowing they could only ruin the promotion party in Suffolk with a victory coupled with a Town defeat.
But that never looked on the cards as The Tractor Boys ran all over sorry Huddersfield while Leeds fell to a 2-1 defeat, with all the goals scored in the first half.
