Huddersfield 0-0 Reading AET (4-3 pens): Terriers promoted to Premier League

Bet365

Defender Chris Schindler slotted the decisive spot-kick, after misses from Liam Moore and Jordan Obita for Reading, to seal the Terriers a 4-3 win on Bank Holiday Monday, after 120 minutes of tense action had ended 0-0.

The victory caps off a remarkable season for David Wagner’s side, with some even tipping them for relegation before the campaign, let alone promotion.

For the Royals, who had been hoping to get back into the Premier League for the first time since 2013, another season in the Championship awaits after a heartbreaking defeat.

It was Huddersfield who started the brighter and they spurned two glorious opportunities to take the lead in the first 10 minutes. The first came from a corner as Michael Hefele nodded just wide from close range, the second fell to Izzy Brown, who somehow managed to turn the ball wide from just a couple of yards with the goal gaping after Elias Kachunga had squared the ball into his path.

That would prove to be the best chance of the 90 minutes, as Huddersfield’s early momentum soon dissipated, and proceedings started to become a little more scrappy, as these finals so often do.

Reading came out for the second half with a little more attacking intent than they managed in the first, and were denied an opener shortly afterwards as John Swift charged through on goal before forcing a fine save out of Danny Ward, while Lewis Grabban probably should have done better than lift the ball wide when through on goal after 57 minutes
