Charlton Athletic extends their unbeaten streak to 11 games with a 2-1 win against Barnsley.
Charlton Athletic extended their unbeaten sequence to 11 games with a battling 2-1 victory over Barnsley. They were unbeaten in ten away games before today.
Manager Nathan Jones made three changes to his starting XI: Karoy Anderson is back in midfield, Macauley Gillesphey is returning in defence, and Kayne Ramsay is at full-back after a long injury break.
Alfie May scored 20 minutes direct from a free kick 18 yards out. Barnsley equalised from the penalty spot through Philips on 26 after an adjudged handball, but May restored the lead on 40 minutes with a rising drive from 12 yards.
Charlton pressed for more goals in the second half and had a chance to increase the lead in stoppage time when substitute Chuks Aneke saw his penalty kick saved. Still, the Addicks saw the game out for three points to stay a safe distance from the relegation zone, and mathematical safety can be achieved with a result on Tuesday night at home to Wigan at 7.45 pm.
