Charlton Athletic win a seven-goal thriller against Watford away from home in the Championship.

Charlton Athletic have registered a thrilling 4-3 victory over Watford at Vicarage Road in the Championship.

The hosts went ahead in the 11th minute when Daniel Pudil fired in from close range.

That lead lasted until the 34th minute when Watford defender Tommie Hoban put the ball into his own net.

Charlton went 2-1 up just three minutes later as Yann Kermorgant headed home from just yards out.

However, the home side made it 2-2 in the 53rd minute from the penalty spot through Almen Abdi after Dorian Dervite committed a foul on Fernando Forestieri inside his own 18-yard box.

In what was proving to be a topsy-turvy game, Watford went 3-2 up midway through the second half through Alexandre Geijo only for Kermorgant to score his second goal just moments later to restore parity.

Charlton had the last laugh in the match when Johnnie Jackson found the target with a header in the 78th minute to bag all three points for his side.
