The National’s Sport cover for the Monday, October 20 issue, featuring Queens Park Rangers’ 3-2 loss to Liverpool, fuelled by a flurry of late goals that included two into the QPR net off QPR defenders.
Covering the game, Jonathan Wilson wrote about how Raheem Sterling, through an appropriately tireless effort, quieted critics.
Despite a lacklustre effort team-wide, Wilson writes, “Fortunately for Liverpool they had Sterling to turn the game their way.”
On QPR’s end, Harry Redknapp, “acknowledged his team’s ‘naivety’ had let them down as they sent men forward for a late free-kick, making possible Raheem Sterling’s counter-attack.”
