da blaze casino: Queens Park Rangers secured their first win in eight games on Saturday afternoon thanks to a brace from Eberechi Eze.
da fazobetai: Mark Warburton’s side defeated playoff-hunting Preston North End 2-0 at Loftus Road, meaning it was also the very first time this season they had kept a clean sheet.
It’s taken them 20 league games to get there, but finally the Rs faithful have seen the opposition stopped.
Between the sticks for the home side was Joe Lumley, who has been Warburton’s first-choice goalkeeper for the past five matches having won the acclaim back from Liam Kelly.
Much of the Rangers faithful have certainly milked this momentous occasion on social media with many praising the 24-year-old.
‘Outstanding’ and ‘different class’ were two phrases used to describe the shot-stopper’s performance while one fan claimed that everything he did was spot on.
There was one moment in the match which must have practically earned the west Londoners a clean sheet as Lumley pulled off a ridiculous save to deny Preston a sure goal.
It has left several of the home contingent talking about the incident specifically, it was that good…
Given that the side have struggled to keep a clean sheet all season, plenty of the Loftus Road crowd have taken a U-turn with their opinions of the goalkeeper after this latest showing.
One supporter questioned where all of the haters were on Saturday afternoon.
Despite enduring a barren run without a victory, these three points against the Lilywhites moves QPR into 14th position, only four points outside of a playoff position, so there’s still plenty left to play for – if Warburton has lofty ambitions.
Rangers head to Birmingham in midweek hoping that the clean sheet wasn’t merely a one-off.
