Portsmouth sealed promotion to the Championship as League One winners on Tuesday night after completing a late comeback to triumph 3-2 over Barnsley at Fratton Park.
Thousands of jubilant Pompey supporters stormed on to the pitch at full-time after Conor Shaughnessy netted the crucial winner in the 89th minute.
Portsmouth twice went behind in the match after Devante Cole's early opener and John McAtee's strike shortly before the hour mark, but managed to rally a late surge to win promotion, with top scorer Colby Bishop equalising from the penalty spot in the 83rd minute before the Shaughnessy's dramatic winning goal.
