Charlton head into play-offs full of cheer thanks to Matty Godden
Posted Sunday, May 04, 2025 by PA
Matty Godden’s double took his tally to 21 goals this season and helped Charlton finish fourth in League One as they saw off Burton Albion 3-1.
The Addicks, unbeaten in 15 matches at The Valley, will face Wycombe in the play-off semi-finals.
The Addicks fell behind in the 13th minute, Mason Bennett converting from the penalty spot after Fabio Tavares was brought down by goalkeeper Ashley Maynard-Brewer.
Godden restored parity in the 24th minute, Charlton’s top scorer finished from the right of the penalty box with Burton keeper Max Crocombe making a bad call to stray from his line to try and reach Tennai Watson’s through ball.
Godden doubled his tally in the 34th minute, producing a sharp turn from Josh Edwards’ pass to beat Crocombe, who managed to get a hand to his low left-footed shot.
Alex Mitchell, whose poor backpass had led to the early penalty, made amends when he headed in Conor Coventry’s inswinging corner in the 51st minute to put Charlton 3-1 ahead.
Addicks debutant Ibrahim Fullah hit the right post from Karoy Anderson’s cutback.
