Charlton came back from a goal down to draw 1-1 with Tranmere Rovers at The Valley on Saturday, ending a run of four defeats in npower League 1.

In a first half of relatively few chances it was the visitors who struck first – a defensive mix up after 25 minutes allowing Tranmere's Zoumana Bakayogo to send team-mate Enoch Showunmi through on goal for 1-0.

Scott Wagstaff came close for Charlton but struck his shot straight at Rovers keeper Tony Warner, while Paul Benson rifled over the bar just before half-time.

Addicks boss Chris Powell's half-time team talk worked wonders though and his side were back on level terms less than 10 minutes after the break. Miguel Angel Llera's (pictured) free kick for a foul on Therry Racon by John Welsh sailed past Warner for 1-1.

The home side could have had three penalties in the final 10 minutes but each appeal was waved away by the referee.
