Millar loses the ball after being surrounded by 3 MK players. Not sure if it was a foul

Dean Lewington has made over 670 league appearances for MK Dons - signed for them in 2003 - now 36 years old - I have to say that’s impressive 

His only other club as a youth ... Wimbledon

Need to get our foot on the ball here

Gunter anticipates well to cut the ball out after a bit of MK pressure.

"Very organised" and "well drilled at the back" just a couple of the comments from the Dons commentary team.

"Gunter playing very well" is another

Isnt going to happen against this lot

Read a stat before the game at the Valley that MK have more possession than any team in Europe... Might be different now but let them pass aimlessly and then hit them on the counter

Dons are able to basically walk through our midfield there with no pressure

42: Laird does brilliantly to get to Harvie’s cross and keep the attack alive. He’s hurt himself but won’t need treatment. Charlton have possession. 0-1 #MKDvCHA

Their last pass is invariably awful.

Harvey's cross, Laird goes flying over Millar trying to head, and lands heavily.

aliwibble

What's the ref doing now?

We've seen those shoulder injuries a lot last season.

Darling is a great name...

Keep thinking of the last season of Blackadder

44: Great run forward from Darling, but he is scythed down. Play continues and Fraser’s whipped cross is headed behind for a corner. 0-1 #MKDvCHA

@MindBLMK

Fraser crosses, Jerome can't reach it, and Millar puts it behind for a corner

44: And the ref keeps his hands in his pockets again when it comes to a Charlton foul... 0-1 #MKDvCHA

@MindBLMK

Dazzler21

Apparently the MK players are having an argument between themselves (Harvey and Fraser)

aliwibble

O Reilly takes it, one of their players goes down in the area, but Amos catches easily

"Charlton a little bit stronger, a little bit faster, a little bit quicker to everything" erm... Aren't those last two the same?
