Your Queens Park Rangers v Coventry City Match Reports

Geoff78 added 19:02 - Jan 31 A cracking all round performance from the Rs. Everyone played their part and no obvious weak links. Bennie, on early, for Dembele had his best game for Rs and although he didn't make the best of two tricky chances you could see his potential more than in previous outings. Kone scored a lovely goal from a gem of a Madsen cross and worked his socks off. He could have been subbed late on when he was running on empty, but I guess Stephan thought his strength was more useful than Kolli's more creative talents. Vale had a terrific game and as always these days Madsen was magnificent and took his goal brilliantly. The sort of goal he's been threatening, blasted home from the edge of the area when Rushworth could only push Vale's perfect cross into the danger area. You could see touches of quality when Coventry were a bit more accurate with their close passing in midfield and often showed a better first touch, but they didn't trouble Walsh until the goal and without Rushworth making one brilliant save and a couple of sharp ones we'd have won more convincingly. I like our new tactic of defending corners with 3 players, Smyth, Bennie and Vale positioned on the half way line. Not sure if this was a tactic specifically for Coventry or something we'll see regularly, but it worked today. Of course it's especially satisfying to beat a Frank Lamppost team and get revenge for the thrashing we suffered, but best of all this was a good, all round professional display by a team playing sensible and occasionally exhilarating football. MotM: Madsen
