Sam Allardyce praised Youri Djorkaeff after the French international rescued a "massive" point for Bolton with a spectacular overhead kick at Charlton.

The 34-year-old struck five minutes from time to cancel out a goal from former Bolton defender Mark Fish.

Allardyce said: "The master came up with a master finish.

That is a massive point for us Bolton boss Sam Allardyce

"It was a fantastic individual piece or skill and I am glad it got us something.

"Youri is finding his way back to his best form.

"I think like many foreign players he is used to having a winter break, and we have had to rest him a bit.

"But he is playing better for us than last year and I hope his goal will give him the confidence to find his best form.

"That is a massive point for us. When you are 1-0 down anywhere in the Premiership, to get a point is a good result, so you have to be satisfied."

I thought the three points were in the bag Charlton's Alan Curbishley

Charlton manager Alan Curbishley also praised Djorkaeff's equaliser, adding: "It was a fantastic goal.

"I couldn't see it coming, I thought the three points were in the bag.

"That has happened to us a couple of times now as we also lost leads against Manchester City and Spurs recently.

"That is two points dropped for us and I am very disappointed because we had a couple of chances to go 2-0 ahead.

"You have got to take those and we didn't."
