Chris Powell admits Charlton's performance did not deserve the win

Powell: 'Charlton flattered by win'

Charlton Athletic boss Chris Powell has admitted that his side were fortunate to take all three points in the 2-0 win over Peterborough United.

The second half was dominated in parts by the Posh, but late goals from Ricardo Fuller and Yann Kermorgant secured the win for Powell's side.

The Addicks have now taken 13 points from 15 available and Powell has praised his side's "discipline and doggedness", which he believes got them their win.

"There is going to be a time when we are going to play better and not get much in return," said Powell.

"We have 13 points out of the last 15 so I can't complain. We've played better this year and lost so it is about time.

"Over the course of the season, sometimes you might not merit the win but because of your discipline and doggedness, which we needed here, you get wins."

Charlton currently sit in 13th place in the Championship table.
