"He was sensational. Sensational in every aspect of the game. Going forward, with the goals he scored, the energy and the willingness to work back, it was a monumental performance by him."
"If everything had gone to plan, Hyun-jun Yang would have been playing a part in Birmingham City's Championship campaign after being deemed surplus to requirements last summer. That move fell through and the player looked destined to remain as a bit-part player in Brendan Rodgers' side, making only a few appearances before the Northern Irishman's shock departure in October."
"Yang has scored six times in the league since Christmas, chipping in with goals as Celtic have kept in the title race. Only three players: Tawanda Maswanhise, Youssef Chermiti and Yang's team-mate Benjamin Nygren have more."
Hyun-jun Yang has emerged as an unexpected key player for Celtic during a tumultuous season. Originally deemed surplus to requirements at Birmingham City, Yang remained largely sidelined under previous management. However, since Christmas, he has scored six league goals, placing him among the top scorers. In Celtic's 3-1 victory over Motherwell, Yang scored twice, providing the crucial comeback after Elijah Just's opening goal for the visitors. His performance demonstrated exceptional energy, willingness to work defensively, and clinical finishing. Manager Martin O'Neill praised Yang's sensational display across all aspects of play. The victory effectively ended Motherwell's title hopes and represents a significant moment in Celtic's pursuit of the Scottish Premiership trophy.
