“Collins Sichenje was booked inside the opening two minutes for a foul, setting an early combative tone and placing Charlton under early pressure with a player walking a tightrope for the rest of the match.”
“Charlie Kelman gave Charlton the lead with a right-footed shot from outside the box, capitalising on a fast break after Paddy McNair had won a free kick in Hull's defensive half. It was a composed finish against the run of early play.”
Pivotal“John Egan headed Hull level from the right side of the six-yard box on the stroke of half-time, meeting Paddy McNair's cross from a corner to pull the visitors back on level terms just as Charlton's goalkeeper Kaminski had been booked for time-wasting.”
Pivotal“Jayden Fevrier, on the pitch just five minutes after the second-half double substitution, settled the contest with a left-footed drive from outside the box to restore Charlton's lead and ultimately win the match. The goal came moments after Charlton had pressed through two consecutive corners.”
Pivotal“Charlton manager Nathan Jones was shown a yellow card in the dying moments for arguing, underlining the tension on the touchline as Hull pressed desperately for an equaliser that never came.”

Outstanding performance
Charlton Athletic•DefenderCharlton Athletic produced a classic smash-and-grab victory, winning 2-1 despite Hull City controlling large swathes of the contest. The Tigers dominated possession at 61 percent and generated 57 dangerous attacks to Charlton's 45, yet it was the Addicks who found the clinical touch when it mattered. Charlie Kelman opened the scoring on the counter in the 20th minute, finishing from outside the box after a rapid transition, only for John Egan to head Hull level from a corner on the stroke of half-time. The second half was a quieter affair but produced the decisive moment: Jayden Fevrier, introduced into a game that was finely balanced, drove a left-footed effort from distance past the Hull goalkeeper in the 68th minute to restore Charlton's lead. For Charlton, sitting in tenth, this result reinforces their push for a top-half finish and rewards Nathan Jones — despite his late yellow card for arguing — for setting up a disciplined, direct structure. Hull, who enjoyed the lion's share of the ball and mustered 14 shots to Charlton's 12, will find this a frustrating afternoon, their profligacy in front of goal and a momentary lapse at set pieces ultimately costing them.
