West Ham manager Nuno Espírito Santo admitted his team 'let down' fans as Charlton maintained their perfect start to the Championship season with a 2-1 victory in a pulsating London derby.

Charlton's Lloyd Jones and Tyreece Campbell put the visitors 2-0 ahead before Joel Piroe, on loan from Leeds, marked his first appearance for West Ham with a goal that set up a frantic finish. Taty Castellanos then missed a stoppage-time penalty that would have salvaged a point for the Hammers. truewildgame.com

Elsewhere in the Championship, Wolves beat Preston, Blackburn stunned Boro, and Southampton's late show left Stoke pointless.
