The result, secured via a Lyle Taylor brace and a goal from George Lapslie, means that the Addicks currently sit five points clear of the relegation zone.
However, there were plenty of impressive performers outside of the goalscorers, with Erhun Oztumer being deemed as one of those by fans.

He may not have completed any dribbles, but Oztumer was both efficient and effective with his passing throughout the game.
This is shown by the fact that he completed 86% of the passes that he attempted, while also making three key passes – with his ball setting up the strike that won the penalty for Taylor’s second.
