Nathan Jones is Fullah praise for Charlton's teenage goalscorer Ibrahim
Miles Leaburn slotted the Addicks ahead in the 27th minute before Fullah, 18, doubled their advantage before the break on his first start for the south London club. Luke Berry headed a third in the second half before Lewis Freestone's late consolation. 'I'm happy with the win and the fact a lot of people got minutes,' said Jones, who made 11 changes from Saturday's Championship victory over Watford. 'If I'm picking holes, I'd have liked us to keep a clean sheet and be a bit more clinical just before half-time. 'It was a fairy tale for Ibrahim. He's closer to the first team than people think. He is a wonderful footballer and he's just got to keep his feet on the ground. That won't be the last time you see him – or that he will score. 'He is not a wing-back, he is an attacking midfielder, but he did a job there tonight because we trust him.' Stevenage have won their opening two League One matches but manager Alex Revell was critical of a damaging opening 45 minutes. He said: 'First half we weren't in the game. We didn't compete enough, run enough or have the energy we are built around in our DNA. 'Ultimately when you give the ball away in areas that can be punished then good players do that. 'Second half we were miles better and it was not one-way traffic, a lot more like us. The third goal comes from a mistake. When you don't turn up for a half it's a struggle to win games.'
