Ryan Inniss frustrated with result, but left encouraged by Norwich cup performance

Ryan Inniss looked back post-game on Charlton’s tough 1-0 defeat to Norwich City in the third round of the Emirates FA Cup on Sunday.

 A valiant effort saw the Addicks fall just narrowly short of causing a big upset against the Premier League Canaries.

 After the game, the towering defender said about the result: “It’s very disappointing given the way we played. I think the boys were excellent all over the park, the way we started the crowd got behind us.”

 Despite the loss, Inniss saw a lot of positives in the Addicks’ performance: “In a couple of months you’ll look back at the fixture and it’s still a loss but take nothing away from the application today from the boys.”

 “I think if we can now do that again on Wednesday against Crewe and then going into the weekend, we can give other teams a real test.”

 As far as recovering from injury goes, Inniss is happy with his progress: “Of course, with every game every minute, I feel fitter and stronger.

 “It’s just having to obviously recover and look after myself but the club have given me every platform to do so.”

 Next up for Charlton is a trip to Crewe Alexandra on Wednesday and Inniss is confident the team will be up for the challenge: “We set the bar today. That’s how we can play and that’s how we have to play every week now.

“If we’re anything less than that, then we need to take a look at ourselves.”
