Seagulls claim vital win

Brighton climbed out of the League One relegation zone with a vital 2-1 away win at out-of-form Charlton.

Calderon and Bennett net for Seagulls, Sodje for Addicks

Brighton climbed out of the relegation zone with a vital 2-1 away win at out-of-form Charlton. Inigo Calderon scored the opener nine minutes before the break with a clinical counter-attack and Elliott Bennett netted a second on 78 minutes, before Akpo Sodje responded with a late consolation for the Addicks in injury time. At the start, Brighton's on-loan striker Kazenga LuaLua fired just wide inside three minutes after creating space down the left. Calderon's goal followed a frenzy of action in the Brighton penalty area. Akpo Sodje and Therry Racon had their shots blocked on the line for Charlton after some good work by Johnnie Jackson. The visitors immediately broke with great speed and Gary Dicker fed over-lapping Calderon down the right to fire beyond Rob Elliott. Bennett got the crucial second goal for the visitors with 12 minutes to play before Sodje netted a late consolation but the home fans greeted the final whistle with boos.
