WARNOCK ON SWANSEA

Posted on: Sat 20 Mar 2010

Neil Warnock was more than satisfied after seeing his team come from a goal behind to register a 1-1 draw with high-flying Swansea City.

The Swans took the lead shortly after the break when Nathan Dyer reacted first to a long ball that smashed off the back of Matt Hill, leaving the midfielder with the easy task of firing home into the bottom left-hand corner of the net.

Rangers didn't capitulate, however, and when Adel Taarabt's cross was fired back across goal by Rowan Vine, Antonio German was on hand to notch from close range.

"Today was always going to be a difficult match against Swansea. They don't concede many goals and are horrible to watch," Warnock told www.qpr.co.uk.

"They're a good passing side but you've just got to hope you get a goal first. When they score it's very difficult.

"When you concede a goal against Swansea it's always going to be difficult, that's the way that they play, horrible.

"I told the players that it would be a horrible game. I think Swansea showed how hard it is to play against them when they're a goal up. I was pleased with the lads' response.

"They're a good group, they needed a little bit of direction but we've got some good players."

R's boss Warnock added: "After we equalised you could see that we were on the front foot. There just wasn't enough time to clinch another goal.

"Once Swansea scored, we were going to make the substitutions anyway to try and win the game, but it's great to come back.

"Fair play to the lads, they kept their heads up, played football and got their just rewards.

"We've got to go out for three points against Derby on Tuesday. Loftus Road is a super stadium and it gets good atmosphere."
