Dale Stephens puts Charlton Athletic ahead against Brighton & Hove Albion before Craig Mackail-Smith equalises in an entertaining first 45 minutes at the Valley.

Charlton Athletic have been pegged back by Brighton & Hove Albion in an entertaining first 45 minutes at the Valley.

Chris Powell's side took the lead after ten minutes when a short corner from Johnnie Jackson and Dale Stephens found its way into the back of the net.

Lawrie Wilson claimed the final touch at the far post but Stephens was awarded the goal.

Brighton had chances to level before the break but Gordon Greer and Stephen Dobbie were guilty of wasting good opportunities.

Greer blasted over from four yards out before Dobbie had a powerful strike tipped behind by Ben Hamer.

Gus Poyet's side finally equalised on the half hour through Craig Mackail-Smith, who pounced on a loose header from Michael Morrison to bury his tenth of the season.
