Nelson has his eye in for Norwich
Norwich City 2 QPR 0
NELSON OLIVEIRA proved a point with the opening goal as Norwich clinched a first league win for new German head coach Daniel Farke.
The Portuguese striker was axed from Farke’s squad after Oliveira, annoyed at only being a substitute in the season opener at Fulham, angrily confronted him after scoring a late equaliser.
But Oliveira was one of five players recalled following Sunday’s 3-1 home defeat by Sunderland and struck with a sublime left-foot finish after 48 minutes from Bosnian midfielder Mario Vrancic’s defence-splitting assist.
On-loan rookie Southampton midfielder Harrison Reed then clinched the points for the Canaries eight minutes from time with a terrific 25-yarder into the top corner – his firstever senior goal.
Norwich fans behind the dugouts had earlier jeered furious Hoops boss Ian Holloway as passions ran high at Carrow Road.
The dust-up developed on the half-hour when Rangers defender Pawel Wszolek went down clutching his leg and supporters turned angrily on the Poland wing-back, clearly thinking he was faking injury.
Holloway immediately vigorously defended his player before the fans realised that Wszolek was genuinely hurt, limping off with what looked like a hamstring injury.
