Draw no surprise
Charlton Athletic 0 Middlesbrough 0Passion, endeavour, skill, commitment - and that was just the crowd! No goals, but plenty of excitement, and a much much better all round performance from the Addicks than those served up in recent Premiership matches.
I have read many of the match reports, and the defensive palyers dominated as those who played well. I thought Southgate was very good in the first half especially, adn Ehiogu very dominant in the second. For Charlton, Powell was terrific, Perry and Hreidersson solid, and I also thought Matt Holland had a tremendous first hour or so.
Charlton therefore make it into the next draw - blimey, it's the semi-final! And very soon we'll know who we will play if we can force a result at the Riverside on April 12th.
