Hermann Hreidarsson's goal gave Charlton Athletic FC the points at Blackburn Rovers FC on Monday night.

Solitary strike
Hreidarsson silenced Ewood Park when he headed in Paolo Di Canio corner's on 33 minutes, after an opening half-hour which the home side had dominated. Blackburn continued to enjoy a territorial advantage in the second half, but could not find a way past a stubborn Charlton defence marshalled by goalkeeper Dean Kiely. The win lifted Charlton to seventh place in the table, while Blackburn stayed in 15th position after this third straight defeat.
