Goals from Cameron Stewart and Johnnie Jackson have sent Charlton Athletic into half time with a two-goal advantage over Yeovil Town in the Championship.

The hosts made a positive start to the afternoon, with early chances falling to John Lundstram and Ishmael Miller, neither of whom tested Ben Alnwick in the away goal.

Alnwick did well to block an effort from Liam Davis in the 24th minute, smothering a 30-yard effort and keeping hold of the ball.

A goalscoring opportunity fell to Stewart in the 29th minute, the loanee cutting in from the byline and shooting towards the top corner, only to be denied by Yeovil keeper Chris Dunn.

Stewart did manage to fire the visitors into the lead in the 37th minute, gaining possession inside his own half, bearing down on goal and beating Dunn with a low strike.

He turned provider as Charlton made it two on the stroke of half time, providing a cross for captain Jackson to nod home in the 44th minute.
