    Yang Praised For “Fantastic” Display By Brendan Rodgers; Huge Improvements Noticed

    Celtic winger Yang has been rightly praised for his man-of-the-match performance in the Hoops’ dominant 7-1 win over Dundee on Wednesday night.

    The South Korean internationalist was handed a deserved start after he made an impactful difference against Motherwell on Sunday. This evening, he repaid the faith manager Brendan Rodgers showed in him.

    Throughout, Yang terrorised opposition full-back, Owen Beck. He constantly ran at the Liverpool loanee who was linked with the Celts in January.

    The 21-year-old set up teenage sensation Daniel Kelly for his first goal in senior football before being subbed off on 76 minutes. After the match, gaffer Rodgers heaped praise on Yang.

    The boss noticed the improvements he had made since he last came up against Dundee and Beck: “I thought Yang was fantastic”, he said (BBC Sportsound).

    “It was great to see him as earlier on in the season he had a problem with the young wing-back who did really well against him.

    “I thought tonight he was very good. Inside or outside he was very creative.”

    On Sunday at Tynecastle, Yang is assuredly in line for another start. The right-wing spot is currently his to lose and after his performance tonight, such a fact is understandable.
