Alex Neil’s side dominated possession in the first half, with the best chances falling to top scorer Ross Stewart who headed a few efforts just wide.
The visitors kept up their pressure at the start of the second half but couldn’t find a way past goalkeeper Craig MacGillivray.

90+4’ Massive chance!
Charlton should have won it!
Lee’s free-kick is drilled back across goal by Stockley and Lavelle was inches away from converting the chance.
90’ Another effort saved
Still Sunderland can’t make a breakthrough.
This time Clarke set up Embleton but the latter’s low shot was saved by the foot of MacGillivray.
