Charlton confirm fan has died after Portsmouth match abandoned at The Valley due to medical emergency

Charlton confirmed that a supporter passed away after their Championship match against Portsmouth was abandoned due to a medical emergency at The Valley.

At 1.30pm, the club confirmed the game had been abandoned and later released a statement which read: "Charlton Athletic are devastated to report that a supporter has passed away following a medical emergency at The Valley today.

"Everyone at the club sends their heartfelt condolences to the supporter's family and friends at this incredibly difficult time."
