Charlton Athletic manager Nathan Jones was overjoyed with his side's win on their return to the Championship.

Harvey Knibbs' stoppage-time winner ensured the Addicks took all three points as they beat Watford 1-0.

"I thought we took about 10 minutes to settle, they played a bit of possession football and we didn't get the press right," he told BBC London.

"But once we got to grips with the game I thought we were excellent, we went after it, we created chances.

"Their keeper's made some excellent saves and I thought we were excellent and thoroughly deserved it - more shots, more shots on target.

"Then to score in the manner that we did is a wonderful way to win a game."
