Lyle Taylor's first-half strike saw AFC Wimbledon secure a comfortable 1-0 victory against a poor Charlton Athletic, Lee Bowyer's first loss as manager.
Charlton's Patrick Bauer made an error in first-half stoppage time, allowing top-scorer Taylor to slot home, giving Wimbledon breathing space in the relegation battle.
The home side went ahead almost immediately as Joe Pigott broke through against his old team but Ben Amos made a triple save, denying first Pigott, then Harry Forrester and Taylor with the follow up.
The Addicks' first chance came after 40 minutes when Jake Forster-Caskey floated in a free kick which somehow evaded everyone. The Dons almost doubled the lead in the 67th minute from a corner but Deji Oshilaja headed straight at Amos.
Charlton could have levelled five minutes later but Michal Zyro could only hit the post with his header, the away side's last good chance for an equaliser.
