Nathan Jones was pleased with how his side came through a tough encounter as the Addicks drew 0-0 with Wycombe Wanderers at Adams Park to set up a huge game at The Valley on Thursday.
Charlton did more to test the opposition goalkeeper in a cagey play-off semi-final first leg, as the Addicks kept their 24th clean sheet of the season.
Speaking after the match Jones said: “It was a really tough game, they came out of the traps and were direct and front-footed. They played a front three with pace, tried to play everything forward, so we had to show a resilient side to us today and we did really, really well. It was evenly poised throughout the tie and in all honesty I felt we finished the stronger – that’s really pleasing.
“Half-way through the tie – there was nothing really to separate anyone. Coming away from home to a side in the play-offs and keeping a clean sheets – that’s really pleasing. The only minor disappointment is that we didn’t nick a goal, sometimes you don’t get everything. It sets us up nicely for a wonderful tie on Thursday.”
