Huddersfield will play in the English Premier League next season courtesy of a 4-3 defeat of Reading at the Wembley Stadium.
It is a much-anticipated return to the top flight after a 45-year absence.
For the third time in history, the second tier play-off final of the English Championship was settled by penalties.
Christopher Schindler fired the winning penalty for Huddersfield.
Yann Kermogant, Danny Williams, Liam Kelly of Reading all scored their attempts while Jordan Obita and Liam Moore missed their efforts.
Chris Loewe, Nakhi Wells, Aaron Mooy and Schindler scored their spot kicks for Huddersfield but Michael Hefele failed to convert his attempt.
Reading had booked their place in the final through a narrow 1-0 win over Fulham.
