But Robertson equalised in the last minute of normal time to secure Blackpool's first point in their last four outings.

“I didn’t really know what to do celebration wise but big Armand (Gnanduillet) has flicked the ball back in the box and I reacted first to the ball and flicked it over the line," he said.
“I think had I not flicked it over then the defender would have cleared it away on the line.
“Our second half performance merited at least a point.
“I thought we played a lot better in the second half than we did in the first so we’ve got to take confidence from that heading into Tuesday’s game (against Scunthorpe United).

“Maybe Charlton didn’t expect us to go long and had to change their game plan a bit which stretched the game.
“That worked because in the second half we saw a lot more of the ball and created some chances.
“Maybe we could have been a couple of goals down in the first half, but other than one save I don’t think Williams has had too much to do.
“We were a lot tighter in the second half which allowed us to go up the other end and score in the last minute.”
