Queens Park Rangers boss Harry Redknapp has praised Charlie Austin for his match-winning goal against Charlton Athletic on Saturday.

The summer signing from Burnley found the net in spectacular fashion at Loftus Road as the R's earned a narrow 1-0 victory in the Championship.

Third-placed QPR are now level on points with Leicester City and leaders Burnley in the table after 16 games.

"It was a great goal from Charlie," Redknapp told the club's official website.

"He's been absolutely great for us. He leads the line well, works hard and he's got a great attitude. I've been really pleased with him and his goal was out of the top drawer."

QPR return to Championship action next weekend when they travel to Doncaster Rovers.
