Yun praised by Charlton boss Riga

Charlton boss Jose Riga praised QPR loanee Yun Suk-young for his reliability and versatility after the victory at Brentford.

Yun played on the left wing in the win at Griffin Park, having been a left wing-back on his debut in the defeat by Reading last weekend.

The Korean put in a solid performance against the threat of Brentford’s Liverpool loanee Sergi Canos.

Riga said: “Yun is a very disciplined player. It means that when you have a gameplan, you’re sure that he will do what he has to do. We need this kind of player.

“He can play left full-back, he can play higher up the pitch, he can play with five or three behind, so it’s important to have this kind of player.

“And although he wasn’t playing at his previous club QPR, he was staying fit because they are professional.”

Riga was delighted with the victory, earned by two Callum Harriott goals, the first coming after just 19 seconds.

He added: “The way we got this win pleased me a lot, creating opportunities.

“And the reaction even when we conceded was a good reaction, the reaction that we have to have.

“We were keeping going, with the same gameplan, to the end. That’s why we were able to create some opportunities in the second half on the counter.”
