Phil Parkinson was delighted with City’s first win in eight games which restored their place in the League One play-off zone.

Jason Kennedy’s late goal clinched a 3-2 victory at MK Dons, who had twice hit back from earlier strikes by Nahki Wells and Kyel Reid.

Parkinson said: “We’re all on a high because MK Dons don’t lose many at this place.

“I’ve brought a Charlton team here many times and it’s a really difficult place to play. They are a very good side and they’ve got an England under-21 international at the top of the pitch.

“But the way we responded (at 2-2) was outstanding and the winning goal typified what we’re all about. It was outstanding play.

“Mark Yeates showed a real moment of quality and James Meredith has driven 60 yards up the outside to cross it. Then Jason Kennedy, who hasn’t played for a while, is in the six-yard box to win us the game.”
