Charlton threatened to spoil Cardiff's Championship promotion celebrations on Tuesday night.

A goalless draw secured the Bluebirds' return to the top flight after 51 years.

But in-form Addicks had the better chances and could have returned from Wales with all three points.

Chris Powell's visitors went closest to breaking the deadlock when Johnnie Jackson's (pictured) free-kick hit the woodwork while Ricardo Fuller was denied by a terrific David Marshall save.

Cardiff's Craig Noone had a header ruled out for offside from a Jordan Mutch cross before the final whistle triggered a pitch invasion.

The point leaves Charlton ninth in the Championship with three matches left.
