Sky Sports introduced a new perspective in broadcasting live footage by giving Huddersfield players selfie sticks after their play-off win against Reading.

Huddersfield were promoted to the Premier League on Monday afternoon after narrowly beating Jaap Stam's side on penalties at Wembley.

But instead of having television cameras spread across the Wembley turf to show off the party scenes, Sky Sports captured the celebrations in an unusual and unique way.
