MATCH CENTRE: Charlton 1 Leeds United 0: Whites miss promotion chance
Akpo Sodje was the man who broke United hearts with an 87th minute winner that flew into the net via the head of Richard Naylor.
Up until the late winner, the second half was a much more even affair than the Leeds-dominated opening 45 minutes.

Hide AdCharlton had perhaps the best chance on the hour when, after the visitors had failed to clear a Gary Borrowdale corner, Sam Sodje somehow headed wide with the goal at his mercy.
Therry Racon also went close with a low shot that had Shane Higgs scrambling across his line, while at the other end Robert Snodgrass curled a shot straight into the hands of Darren Rudolph.
Jermaine Beckford also missed from close range before the game was decided on 87 minutes when Akpo Sodje's header flew in via Richard Naylor.
