Adam McDonnell netted a fourth minute penalty as Town’s U21s drew 1-1 with Charlton at VCD Athletic’s Oakwood ground this afternoon.

The Irish U19 international converted the spot-kick after Josh Umerah had been penalised for handball following a Town corner.

The Addicks, who went into the game top of the U21 Professional Development League Two South, equalised via Chris Millar 10 minutes after the break.

Happy to score my first goal today✌🏻️ pity about the result..

The Blues fielded a young team with no senior players involved. Teddy Bishop was left out as the Blues continue to take his comeback slowly.

First-year scholar Andre Dozzell, a regular in the U21s this season, was also missing having suffered an ankle ligament injury in the recent game at Bristol City and is likely to be sidelined for a couple of months.

U21s: Crowe, Hammond, Fowler, Robinson, Kenlock, Benyu, McDonnell, Ramadan (Downes 55), Connolly (Ford 77), Alabi, Henshall. Unused: Marsden, Salaudeen, McKendry.
