Charlton players featuring in the world cup finals

stevec

Help please. Apart from Reza (tonight) and Charlie Wright playing for Hong Kong in a world cup qualifier are there any other Charlton players that have featured in the finals. I think Shaun Bartlett may have for South Africa, but not sure. Anyone out there that can help?

Fish (98) and Costa (02)

I believe only 4 players (after Reza tonight) have played at the World Cup (not including qualifiers) whilst playing for Charlton

Hewie, Kinsella and Jensen.

Remember Kinsella starting in place of Keane in 2002 and Jensen playing for Denmark.

Stephan Andersen maybe?

This is correct as Charlton players.

All of the others were with other clubs when they played at the World Cup.

He was the main beneficiary of Roy Keane throwing a strop and going home.

Has any Charlton player (while at Charlton) scored a World Cup finals goal?

I know John Hewie missed a penalty, hitting the woodwork, in 1958. Is that the nearest?

No current Cafc player has scored a goal at a World Cup. Reza is as short as 7/4 to be the first.
