AFC Wimbledon will be playing League One football next season after Lyle Taylor and Adebayo Akinfenwa scored second half goals to give them a 2-0 win over Plymouth at Wembley Stadium.
Below are five key points that came from the occasion.
Connor Smith's inclusion in the XI was a surprise
Connor Smith's inclusion in the starting eleven was arguably the biggest talking point for Dons fans as they were filling their seats in Wembley before kick off, with the former Watford man replacing Sean Rigg in the line up.
Smith was stretchered off in the final regular game of the season against Newport when he suffered what looked like a serious neck injury, but Neal Ardley threw the 23-year-old into the final.
The wide man looked off the pace in the first half, giving the ball away to Plymouth in a dangerous area which could have ended up so much worse for the Dons.
It was a bold move from Ardley, but the wrong one.
Jake Reeves was the best player on the pitch
The Play-Off finals are known for their heroic performances from stand out players and this League Two final was no different
Jake Reeves stood head and shoulders above anyone else on the pitch and showed that he could easily play in a higher level than this.
He was calm and composed and looked beyond his years in the centre of the AFC Wimbledon pitch, looking like a man who had been here and done this all before.
The Wimbledon number eight continued his performance into the second half, controlling the game and picking the right pass every time the ball was at his feet.
It was clear from this game that Ardley and AFC Wimbledon have a gem in their midfield and based on this performance, it won't be long before other clubs come sniffing.
Plymouth failed to match AFC Wimbledon's physicality
The pre match hype was all about Adebayo Akinfenwa and his physical prowess, but it was a different AFC Wimbledon striker who was causing problems for the Plymouth Argyle defence all day.
The team in green and white had no answer to Elliott's physical presence at the head of the Dons attack, with the number nine winning everything that was thrown up to him.
There was no doubting that the direct play that the game developed into suited the Dons more and Elliott was the profiteer.
However, the lack of balls from the wing into the Plymouth box meant that Elliott and his side were unable to get any luck from their obvious physical dominance.
Dons fans can fill Plough Lane
The Dons fans proved to the Mayor of London today that they could fill a new stadium as over 20,000 of them piled into the national stadium to follow their side.
The fans were in fine voice before and during their game, often out singing the Plymouth fans despite their numerical advantage.
If there is anything we, and indeed Sadiq Khan learnt today, is that AFC Wimbledon can most certainly back Plough Lane.
AFC Wimbledon will be playing in League One next year
Obviously, the main thing we learnt from today's game is that AFC Wimbledon will be playing in League One next season after being promoted.
The fairytale story of the phoenix club will continue at The Macron, Bramall Lane and, of course, Stadium: MK.
It will take some doing for AFC Wimbledon to stay there next year, but what a season it promises to be.
