CHARLTON crashed out of the FA Cup at the hands of Championship side Leicester City in the fifth round at The Valley on Saturday.

Dion Dublin stunned the home side with a last minute winner after heading in a corner that Danny Murphy was unable to keep out on the goalline.

Leicester had taken the lead after 37 minutes when a long ball into the box by Joey Gudjonsson was headed into the net at the far post by an unchallenged Nikos Dabizas.

Charlton hit back soon after when Paul Konchesky's low cross from the left was steered into the net at the near post by South Africa international Shaun Bartlett in first half stoppage time.

The visitors continued to look the better side after the break and Charlton were made to pay for their below par display by Dublin's last gasp strike.

Charlton: Kiely, Young, El Karkouri, Fortune (Johansson 69), Hreidarsson, Holland, Hughes (Euell 79), Murphy, Konchesky, Rommedahl (Thomas 46), Bartlett. subs Not Used: Andersen, Perry.

Attendance: 23,719
