The 32-year-old struck late on to seal a 1-0 win for the Terriers against Luton Town in the second leg of the Championship play-off semi-final at the John Smith's Stadium. That earned a 2-1 aggregate win and booked them a place at Wembley for the final against either Nottingham Forest or Sheffield United on Sunday, May 29.

Rhodes, in his second stint at Huddersfield, scored a whopping 40 goals for the club in the final season of his first spell with the club. And his final act was to help the club win a Wembley showpiece.
