Milton Keynes Dons 1-2 Charlton Athletic

  • Published

Charlton moved up into the final play-off spot after beating MK Dons to record their first win in three games and condemn their struggling hosts to a sixth successive defeat in all competitions.

Ahmed Kashi and Josh Magennis both found the net for the visitors, while Kieran Agard scored a consolation for MK, but it was not enough for the Dons' rookie boss Dan Micciche, who has lost all of his five matches in charge.

The Addicks took a deserved lead when Conor McGrandles was dispossessed on the edge of his own penalty area, before Kashi took one touch and fired a powerful right-footed drive past keeper Lee Nicholls for his second goal of the season.

Karl Robinson - the former MK Dons boss - then saw his men double their lead on the hour when Magennis nodded home his 12th goal of the campaign from Jake Forster-Caskey's cross.

And, despite the home side pulling one back through Agard just two minutes later from Robbie Muirhead's corner, it proved only to be a consolation goal for MK, who remain six points adrift of safety.
