Charlton 1 Millwall 1
A late equaliser denied 10-man Charlton a derby-day victory as the Addicks were held to a 1-1 draw by Millwall at The Valley.
Sonny Carey opened his Charlton account with a first-half strike and Nathan Jones’ side looked set for a deserved three points. But after Kayne Ramsay’s dismissal in the 74th minute, the visitors made their numerical advantage count, levelling with just two minutes to play.
The game began with the intensity expected of a South London derby, though clear chances were limited in the early exchanges. Ramsay fired over before Millwall’s Josh Coburn volleyed wide.
As the half wore on, Charlton took further control. Rob Apter saw a left-footed effort blocked, before another strike deflected narrowly onto the crossbar with Steven Benda beaten.
From the resulting corner, the breakthrough arrived. Benda’s punch fell to the edge of the box where Carey showed strength and composure to hold off his marker and fire low through a crowd of bodies to put the Addicks in front.
Charlton carried their momentum into the second half. Carey forced a smart save from Benda, while Miles Leaburn and Lloyd Jones both had half chances to double the advantage.
The turning point came on 74 minutes, Ramsay dismissed for a second bookable offence following a challenge on Aidomo Emakhu.
Despite being reduced to 10 men, the Addicks continued to threaten. Leaburn battled superbly to set up Tyreece Campbell, named Sky’s Player of the Match, but his fierce effort flew just over.
Millwall thought they had levelled when Ra’ees Bangura-Williams found the net, only for the referee to penalise him for handball. But the forward made no mistake moments later, pouncing inside the area to snatch a late equaliser for the visitors.
Charlton return to action next Saturday with a trip to Bramall Lane to face Sheffield United.
