Wycombe boss Gareth Ainsworth has admitted that his side have ‘got to take their chances’ following their 1-1 home draw against Charlton Athletic.

Wanderers dominated the opening period and could have easily been out of sight, but due to the heroic defending from the Addicks backline, on top of some brilliant saves from Joe Wollacott, the game ended all square.

In all, the Chairboys had 20 attempts at goal with eight being on target.

They also had eight corners and caused several issues for the Athletic backline, but they could not find that decisive winner in front of 6,139 spectators, which is the highest crowd at Adams Park so far this season.

Speaking on the draw, Ainsworth said: “There were many positives to take going into the next game but I just wanted to put it to bed in the first-half today.

“That would have been nice as we dominated them.

“It was very much even during the second but you were always going to get that.

“Charlton are a huge club, their fans were brilliant today and historically, a 1-1 draw against them is a brilliant result.

“But it shows how far we have come as we are disappointed to not win the game.

“I thought we did enough to score one or two more goals today.

“The lads looked fit, they looked good and it’s another point on the board, so we need to make sure we can keep it amongst it during the season, as we have got a fantastic squad.

“It’s a lesson that when you’re on top, you have got to take your chances.”
