Norwich City ran out 2-0 winners against QPR on Wednesday night as they bounced back from their loss against Sunderland.
The Canaries produced a superb display as they battled hard to beat Ian Holloway’s side at Carrow Road.
A strong start by QPR was well defended by Norwich, with a gritty first-half ending 0-0.
Mario Vrancic and Nelson Oliveira made sure Norwich had the perfect start to the second half, as the former set up the latter to open the scoring in the 49th minute.
QPR then came close to equalising but for a top double save from Angus Gunn to keep Norwich in front. Gunn made a low diving save to push away the first effort before rushing back across his goal to pounce on the rebound and collect the ball.
Harrison Reed sealed the win for Norwich in the 82nd minute. The midfielder drove forward with the ball and unleashed a rasping shot into the top corner from 25-yards.
Picking a man of the match has been fairly easy, with one man standing out above the rest.
Our man of the match against QPR is… Harrison Reed!
The dynamic midfielder was simply exceptional sitting just in front of the defence.
He swept up and defended extremely well, nipping in to win the ball back in good positions to set up counter-attacks.
The on-loan Southampton man battled well against QPR’s midfield and his use of the ball was excellent as always.
And to top it off, he thumped a strike into the top corner – his first ever senior goal.
