Chris Powell "delighted" with win

Charlton Athletic manager Chris Powell has admitted that he is "delighted" to be in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

The Addicks set up a meeting with Huddersfield Town with a 3-0 victory against Oxford United on Tuesday evening.

Speaking after the match, Powell described the competition as "wonderful".

"The FA Cup is a wonderful competition and we're delighted to get through. It's been much maligned at times, which I think is a disgrace, because it's one of the best," Powell is quoted as saying on TheFA.com.

"Now, it comes alive in the later rounds and we didn't want to be a casualty, which we were close to being last week. But we've come through it and now I want us to go to Huddersfield and get through that game."

Charlton travel to face the Terriers on Saturday.
