Terrible defending and goalkeeping, still nothing really to play for I suppose.

We have had so few individual error leading to goals in 2021 - today we had three and then another to miss the penalty.
Perhaps that is what top teams force you to do, but I think Norwich will struggle in the Prem.

Match Report
mistakes punished in defeat by Norwich
By David McIntyre 24/04/2021
QPR1Norwich3
32'Quintilla57'Aarons71'Dykes82'Buendía
QPR were unable to stop Norwich City taking another step towards the Championship title.
The Canaries, already sure of promotion, went ahead on 32 minutes courtesy of Xavi Quintilla’s first career goal and a rare mistake by keeper Seny Dieng.
Max Aarons doubled the lead with a far-post volley on 57 minutes – just after City keeper Tim Krul had saved Lyndon Dykes’ penalty.
ADVERTISING
Dykes atoned by pulling one back on 71 minutes – his sixth goal in as many matches – but Emiliano Buendía’s late third sealed the victory for Daniel Farke’s side.
They must wait to be crowned champions, though, as second-placed Watford beat Millwall, ensuring they will join the East Anglian club in the top flight next season.
The opening goal came when Dieng, who has been outstanding this season, allowed Quintilla’s left-footed shot from near the edge of the penalty area to squirm through his hands and over the line.
Osman Kakay had gone close for Rangers inside the opening minute, firing narrowly wide of the target, but after that Norwich took control.
Buendia missed a chance to put them ahead when Jordy de Wijs failed to clear Grant Hanley’s punt forward and the Spaniard lifted the ball over Dieng but wide of the near post.
Another defensive error, this time by Rob Dickie, then let in Teemu Pukki, whose mis-hit shot was gathered by Dieng.
Norwich continued to have the upper hand and Kieran Dowell shot wide and had an effort saved by Dieng before Farke’s men eventually went ahead.
Rangers would have equalised before the interval had Krul not saved with his leg to deny Dykes after the Scotland striker was put in on goal by Ilias Chair.
And Krul denied Dykes again when QPR were awarded a spot-kick after Chris Willock was barged over by Hanley.
Dykes’ no-frills approach to taking penalties had seen him thump in his four previous attempts this season.
However, on this occasion the keeper stood his ground and blocked Dykes’ right-footed strike.
Worse followed for QPR when west Londoner Aarons drifted away from Lee Wallace to blast in Kenny McLean’s left-wing cross.
Rangers reduced the deficit when Willock pulled the ball back from the right to Charlie Austin, whose off-target shot was diverted into the net by Dykes from close range.
Austin, on as a substitute, then missed a glorious chance to equalise by heading Albert Adomah’s cross wide.
Rangers looked to be finishing the game strongly but their failed attempt to bring the ball out of defence led to Buendía helping himself to a goal with eight minutes remaining.
After Dickie gave the ball away, Todd Cantwell threaded it through to McLean, who laid it across from the left to tee up Buendía for a simple finish.
QPR: Dieng, Dickie, De Wijs (Ball 76), Barbet, Kakay (Adomah 66), Johansen (Bettache 89), Thomas (Field 45), Wallace, Chair (Austin 66), Willock, Dykes.
Subs not used: Walsh, Kane, Hamalainen, Bonne.

The team have done wonders getting to 8th. Well done to all. Lets hope we keep together and can strengthen during the break, then have a right old go at promotion next season. I see Lydinho scored again!

I suppose we got what we deserved fro sitting off them too much but could have got a point.
Unusual say with Dieng fumbling one in and Dykes missing penalty but water it was a miss or a good leggy save is open to question. Dykes goal run continues, Austins goal drought continues despite a couple of good chances - maybe Dykes should have a word Charlies ear.
Still not sure what they are doing with Field. I getter feeling he does not want to stay.
Lumleynot on the bench after a couple good saves - injured? doubt it, on strike? maybe? turned down a contract and leaving so get Weals exposed? most likely.

Yes, when asked yesterday Warburton reacted with a 'I pick the team' stock answer. Perhaps Joe was not happy to lose his place to a crocked Seny. But if he is not going to be here next season, it is not hard to see the logic. Perhaps Seny's display yesterday may turn some suiters off, or deflate his value. |
