Chris Powell says that the FA Cup is a "wonderful" competition and is delighted that Charlton Athletic are in the fourth round.

Charlton Athletic manager Chris Powell has admitted that he is "delighted" to be in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

The Addicks set up a meeting with Huddersfield Town with a 3-0 victory against Oxford United on Tuesday evening.

Speaking after the match, Powell described the competition as "wonderful".

"The FA Cup is a wonderful competition and we're delighted to get through. It's been much maligned at times, which I think is a disgrace, because it's one of the best," Powell is quoted as saying on TheFA.com.

"Now, it comes alive in the later rounds and we didn't want to be a casualty, which we were close to being last week. But we've come through it and now I want us to go to Huddersfield and get through that game."

Charlton travel to face the Terriers on Saturday.
