Charlton Athletic boss Chris Powell has expressed his delight at his side's 2-1 win over Ipswich Town this afternoon.
Powell saw his side pour more misery onto Ipswich's season with the victory and the 43-year-old believes that it was a deserved victory.
"It's been a tough time for ourselves and Ipswich. We both saw it as an opportunity to get back on track and I'm delighted we came out on top. Over 90 minutes we deserved it. It was a sterling performance from all my players," said Powell.
"We'd lost our previous three games but gone close, although I know I can't keep saying that. You've got to get points. The last half-hour against Derby (on Tuesday night) showed what we can do in this league. I asked my players to show what they could do for longer than 30 minutes and I felt they did that today.
"I'm really pleased for everyone connected within our club."
Charlton's next match comes against Blackburn Rovers in a week's time.
