Charlton Athletic beat Leyton Orient in an all-London play-off final at Wembley to win promotion to the Championship.


Macaulay Gillesphey's first-half free-kick was all there was to separate the two sides in the contest.


Striker Charlie Kelman hit the crossbar with a deflected shot as the O's chased the game, as Richie Wellens' side failed to find a way back into the tie.


Charlton saw out 11 minutes of nervy added time to move back up to the second tier after five seasons in League One, alongside champions Birmingham City and Wrexham.
