Alex Smithies "over the moon" with play-off win

Huddersfield Town penalty hero Alex Smithies has described himself as "over the moon" following his side's promotion to the Championship.

After keeping a clean sheet for 120 minutes of the League One play-off final against Sheffield United, the 22-year-old goalkeeper saved two spot kicks in the shootout before scoring the winning penalty himself.

He told BBC Radio 5 live: "I'm over the moon. I can't believe it. The lads were terrific and I can't believe how it turned out."

Smithies has made 15 appearances this season, keeping five clean sheets.
