Charlton hit back to beat Derby

Tyreece Campbell's impressive start to the new season continued as his 80th-minute goal earned Charlton a 2-1 victory over Derby at The Valley. <p>It capped off a week to forget for the Rams after Saudi government official Turki Alalshikh's takeover collapsed on Monday.</p><p>Sammie Szmodics, who had also netted in the EFL Cup loss to Lincoln, had put Derby into a lead at the halfway point.</p><p>But Lloyd Jones, who signed a new two-year contract on Friday, headed the Addicks level before Campbell produced an excellent finish to seal maximum points for Nathan Jones' side.</p><p>Charlton had started in positive fashion with Billy Koumetio heading wide from an early Sonny Carey corner.</p><widget id="7"></widget><ul><li><a href="https://qrcode.skysports.com/skysports/ChampHLsarticles"><strong>Watch FREE Championship highlights</strong></a> | <a href="https://qrcode.skysports.com/skysports/EFLblogreports"><strong>Latest EFL news and rumours</strong></a></li><li><strong>Not got Sky? <a href="https://www.sky.com/tv/sports?dcmp=Ilc_skysports_nc_articlelink">Latest Sky Sports deals</a> or <a href="https://www.nowtv.com/membership/watch-sky-sports/football/efl?DCMP=ilc_skysports_nc_articlelink">stream EFL games with no contract</a>\ud83d\udcfa</strong></li></ul><p>Karlan Grant, making his 100th appearance for the Addicks having rejoined in the summer, shot straight at Jacob Widell Zetterstrom before teeing up a chance for Carey but the attacking midfielder produced a horrible miskick in the 16th minute.</p><p>Derby enjoyed a spell of possession before they went ahead.</p><p>There had been a warning when Szmodics got on the end of Joe Ward's low cross but his first-time finish was saved by Charlton keeper Will Mannion. But moments later he made no mistake from inside the penalty area after being picked out by Morris.</p><p>Charlton finished the first half asking a few more defensive questions and Taylor made a sliding block from a goal-bound shot by Danny McNamara.

He was replaced by new signing Alex Mowatt.</p><p>Charlton levelled in the 61st minute through Jones. The centre-back, captaining the side in the absence of Greg Docherty, headed home Grant's dinked cross from the left of the penalty area.</p><p>Mannion, who looked nervy dealing with crosses, went full stretch to turn Oscar Fraulo's 20-yard effort around his left upright.</p><p>Campbell was the most dangerous outlet for the Addicks and produced a fine strike, on his weaker left foot, to put the south Londoners in front for the first time on the afternoon.</p><p>It was the 22-year-old's second goal of the season, only one fewer than he managed in the whole of the previous campaign.</p><p>There were eight minutes of stoppage time added but Charlton fended off the late Derby pressure, with Morris only able to send Max Johnston's cross straight at Mannion.</p><h3>The managers</h3><p><em>Charlton's Nathan Jones:</em></p><p>"I'm really pleased - the result is everything and we've bedded in a lot of new signings. We had a captain's goal where he gets over the back and scores a great header.</p><p>"With TC, he gets in those positions all the time and one-v-one he is a threat. We just want the outcomes from him.</p><p>"Last week he had a similar chance, went outside and hit the bar with a rasper. Then he cut inside and hit the corner (to score against Cheltenham in the EFL Cup).</p><p>"We are in really advanced negotiations with him. We're hoping we can get that done.</p><p>"There are 45 more games. Last season we had a really good start - we had that momentum after coming up - and once we picked up a few injuries we didn't have the squad to cope with that. This season we have got the squad to cope with it a little bit more."</p><p><em>Derby's John Eustace:</em></p><p>"I'm really disappointed to lose. I didn't think there was much in the game.</p><p>"We limited Charlton to no chances, really, so the two goals we conceded were really sloppy from a defensive point of view. If we want to pick up points then we've got to be better than that.</p><p>"We didn't stop the cross or defend the cross itself. It's too easy for the lad to get the header on it. The second goal, we are in a really good position in their area and then we don't get the defensive structure right behind the ball. It was a lack of communication. We have got to defend the shot better.</p><p>"That is the first time that team has played together. There are some tired legs in there. We've got Fozzy (Craig Forsyth) at centre-half who is 37 and doing terrific.</p><p>"The effort and attitude of the group was sensational today, as it always is.</p><p>"Sammie had a slight tweak in the warm-up, so it was a big ask for him to start. He's such a top player at this level, he took his goal sensationally well, we've just got to hope we're not losing him for much time."</p><h3>What the result means and next fixtures...</h3> <widget id="4"></widget><ul><li><strong><a href="https://www.skysports.com/championship-scores-fixtures">Championship fixtures</a></strong></li></ul> <widget id="1"></widget>
