Standout star turns the tide for Preston at Charlton | OneFootball

Brad Potts created the equaliser in the 25th minute with a driven cross, as Preston beat Charlton Athletic 2-1.

From the right, Potts whipped in the delivery that Lewis Norman Dobbin headed in, attacking the back post after Preston broke quickly (25.). He threatened again before the interval, steering a left-footed attempt wide from the centre of the box (43.). Then he produced the decisive touch after the restart, driving a low finish into the bottom left from the right channel on a fast break (65.).

Potts finished with three attempts, two on target, a goal and an assist, plus seven recoveries, underlining how he combined end product with diligent work without the ball.

On transitions he consistently found space down the right, his direct runs and early deliveries keeping Charlton pinned back and allowing Preston to control the key moments.

Preston sit 13th and host West Bromwich Albion next. Charlton Athletic are 18th and visit Sheffield Wednesday.
