Charlton earned a convincing 3-0 victory over Ipswich at Portman Road in the Sky Bet Championship.

The visitors scored twice through Sonny Carey and Macaulay Gillesphey in a pulsating three-minute second half spell, with Miles Leaburn adding a third.

Yet things could have been so different if Ipswich had taken their chances in a one-sided first half, which included Chuba Akpom's rising effort striking the Addicks' bar.

It was the Town's first home defeat of the season, after winning three on the trot, and Charlton's second away win of the campaign.

Ipswich striker Ivan Azon came close to opening the scoring when he followed up a shot from just outside the penalty area by Marcelino Nunez but Addicks' goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski managed to gather the ball.

Nunez then floored Charlton's skipper Greg Docherty with a fierce shot and Kasey McAteer fired over the bar as Ipswich held the upper hand in the opening 10 minutes.

Town goalkeeper Alex Palmer had to come off after 23 minutes when he appeared to injure his right leg and was replaced by Christian Walton.
