A Charlton fan has gone viral on social media for his passionate celebrations as Nathan Jones' side reached the League One play-off final.

After a tense goalless draw last week, the Addicks welcomed Wycombe to The Valley on Thursday. Both sides aimed to secure their place at Wembley.

Once again, both teams struggled to break the deadlock, and extra time appeared to be the only way to separate the sides heading into the closing stages.

However, with less than ten minutes of regular time remaining, Charlton striker Matty Godden netted from close range to send the home supporters into pandemonium.

Charlton boss Jones could be seen falling to his knees on the touchline as the dramatic winner reverberated across the 24,000 Addicks supporters in attendance for the sold-out clash.

As the Sky Sports cameras captured the jubilant scenes from the stands, one fan could be seen pulling his shirt over his head and bouncing up and down amidst the rapturous applause.

The clip was quickly circulated widely on social media, with fans playfully pointing out the supporter's paunchy physique.

One wrote: 'I’m recreating this if we get a last-minute goal against someone.'

Another fan joked: 'This Charlton Athletic fan is a first ballot GIF hall of famer.'

A third added: 'Yellow card for celebrating & taking your shirt off…? That’s a straight red!'

A further user wrote: 'This is what football's about! Charlton fans enjoyed that goal, Gogo on lad!!'

Victory on Thursday sees Charlton face Leyton Orient at Wembley later this month, with the winner securing a place in the Championship.

After briefly establishing themselves as a Premier League mainstay under then-boss Alan Curbishley, Charlton have spent the last 15 years yo-yoing between the second and third tiers.

The clubhase spent their last five seasons in League One after being relegated following a single season in the Championship in 2019/20.
