While keeping Charlton to just a single effort on target all night, Dons kept their first clean sheet of the campaign en route to the win, ending a five-match losing run which saw them sink to the foot of the third tier.
Here’s how we rated the players on a vital night for Dons.
1. Jamie Cumming - 6.5
An easy night for the keeper really. Decent stop from Rak-Sakyi but was kept quiet by the defence in front Photo: Alex Pantling
2. Top Don: Zak Jules - 8
A mountain in defence. Made excellent tackles, was strong, aerially won everything, and was in the right place at the right time to block crosses. The standout. Photo: Alex Pantling
3. Warren O'Hora - 7.5
Offered nothing to the Charlton front line. Solid and strong on the ball Photo: Jane Russell
4. Dean Lewington - 7.5
Kept close tabs on Jayden Stockley, who only had 12 touches all game. Photo: Jane Russell
