QPR Development Squad went goal crazy this afternoon with a 7-1 win against Peterborough United U21s
at the Weston Homes Stadium.

Our first chance came in the 8th minute when Zyad Larkeche went on a mazy run down the wing and along
the byline, put the ball on a plate a yard out under the bar yet Steven Bala actually managed to put the ball a
yard over the frame of the goal.

A minute later we did take the lead when Charlie Kelman received the ball with his back to goal, turned his
marker and smashed his shot home from 25 yards.

On 11 minutes good work by Kelman and Pedder saw Alex Aoraha get his 18 yard shot away but it was an inch wide.
Five minutes we did make it 2-0. Larkeche was the provider and scorer!! He went on another mazy run down the
wing/byline and set up Adomah who produced an air shot from 6 yards but luckily the ball rico heated back to
Larkeche and he smashed home. It was literally one way traffic.

On 18 minutes Kelman and Adomah played a one two in the box and Uncle fed Aoraha who again shot an inch wide.
Five minutes further on and Kelman was tripped in the box and he picked himself up to bury the spot kick for 3-0.

On 33 mins it was 4-0 when Kelman found Pedder running into the box with a slide rule pass and the low shot found
the net via the right hand post. In the last 8 minutes we hit the woodwork twice with Kelmans 38 minute left foot shot
rebounding off the bar and on 45 Adomah set up Pedder at a tight angle but his right foot shot hit the outside of the
left-hand post.

Four minutes were added on and in the last ten seconds Posh slung a long cross to the back post and a home put in
a looping header which somehow found the net. It was the first time the ball had been near our box let alone the goal.
We could and should have had at least another 4 goals possibly more. HT 1-4

At half time Rayan Kolli replaced Bala. Within 3 minutes he had tested the keeper with a 25 yard shot which was
saved comfortably. It wouldn't be Kollis last involvement . On 71 mins Pedder back-heeled the ball past a defender
and was one on one with the keeper. Miraculously the keeper pulled off a double save and I don't know how?

Ten minutes from the end Kolli was fouled in the D as he once again terrorised the defence with his pace.
Stephen Duke-McKenna bent the ball over the wall into the bottom left corner of the goal giving the keeper no
chance for 5-1.

From then on in it turned into the Rayan Kolli as every time he got the ball he took defenders on and was an
absolute nuisance. On 82 minutes he went on a run and from 25 yards out found the top left corner with a screamer
of a shot for 6-1.

We all thought we had seen the best goal of the game but we were wrong with a capital W. Again Kolli picked the ball
up 40 yards out , beat two players and this time smashed a screamer in from 30 yards.

Everyone in attendance clapped that one. And before Gerry Purcell comes in here, yes, as he aimed to shoot,
I shouted 'don't shoot from there!!' I was very wrong with a capital W. Even Rafferty Pedder's family laughed at me.

So in 90 minutes we doubled our goal scoring making it 14 goals in 3 wins out of 3.
I've had worse afternoons.
