Lavelle gets involved in a foot race down our right, and hoofs it up into the upper West.

Brownie has got the right hump today.

That's his middle name..

Some lovely passing play from us there, but the cross is slightly behind Gilbey (?) and it's cleared.

Dazzler21

Lavelle proper no nonsense tonight. 

Clare allowing the ball to bounce over him, Stockley too deep, but we look fine.  Nothing special but look like a football team.

19' Washington tees up Clare on the edge of the box, but his first-time effort is closed down. #cafc 0 #gills 0

This is better... Need to turn this possession into chances now

aliwibble

CBT down the left again, but the full back manages to put it out for a throw.

Dazzler21

CBT definitely stays for me.

aliwibble

Washington gets into the area, ball comes back to Clare, who shoots from distance, but it's deflected and they clear.

Briston_Addick

Ooh, that was unlucky.

A well-engineered move down the left led to a square pass for Clare(?) to have a strike at goal but the shot was blocked.

We look a lot better going forward tonight.

On a cruise between Abu Dhabi and Doha. Seems like more action watching the waves from the ship than this match so far.

We seem a lot sharper and organised than Saturday, and this is def in our favour so far

Valley pass keeps buffering for me. Anyone else??

Nope, fine here. You may need to reboot your router at half time.

He's played well so far, been the focus of the majority of our attacking moves.

Amazing what two actual forwards can do. 

Fraser making some nice passes tonight.

Gills shoot from the edge of the area, but McG drops low to save.

Lovely one between the lines to Washington a second ago

aliwibble

Clare and Matthews down the right, Matthews gets forced back but gets the ball to CBT, he wins us corner.

22' Lavelle gets his head on it, it finds itself back out wide to Gilbey and his cross is headed over by Stockley. #cafc 0 #gills 0

This is better. Fraser now showing what he’s about. CBT also decent. 

Dazzler21

Matthews also in contract earning mode 

🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

Fraser takes, cleared out to the right, Gilbey crosses in, header from Stockley/Lavelle (not sure which) ballons over.

22' 0-0 Charlton have a corner on the far side of the field, attacking the Jimmy Seed Stand where the #Gills fans are located. Ball comes in, flicked on and kept alive by Gilbey. His cross results in a header going over the bar, no issues for Pontus.

robroy

Finally a decent delivery from a corner 

aliwibble

Washington switches the ball over to CBT but a slight miscontrol means it's out for a throw

Dazzler21

Lavelle and Stockley jump into eachother to stop Gilbey's cross creating any danger.
