Sam Lavelle equalised, but Regan Poole notched a stoppage time winner, as Charlton lost 3-2 at home to Accrington Stanley on Tuesday night, with Lee not involved.

The Latics went in front on 21 minutes but Kioso then equalised on the half hour, powerfully heading home Daniel Harvie’s cross for his third goal in just seven league appearances.
The visitors had the lead before half time, Harvie’s cross deflecting into the net, as after the break, Kioso did well to deal with a dangerous ball from Max Power, as MK Dons held on.
On Saturday, Kioso played 90 minutes as the Dons went down 1-0 at Shrewsbury, ex- Luton winger Shaun Whalley netting early in the second half.
