Akpo Sodje spared the blushes of his brother Sam as 10-man Charlton came from behind to draw 1-1 at Yeovil.

Yeovil had the better of the first half with the wind and rain behind them and grabbed the lead just before half-time when loanee Ryan Mason set up Jon Obika and the striker made no mistake.

Charlton had already lost central defender Sam Sodje to a 27th-minute red card for a professional foul on Mason.

But on-loan Sheffield Wednesday striker Akpo Sodje came on at half-time and secured a point with a stunning long-range strike.

The former Port Vale man had already had a goal disallowed for offside just two minutes after coming on when he converted Miguel Angel Llera's free-kick.

Despite holding on for a point, the Addicks lose ground at the top of League One after Leeds won away at Brighton.
