Irish youngster Ryan Manning describes “the best feeling ever” after dream debut for QPR

“He showed heart, fight – that’s as good a debut as I’ve seen,” said Ian Holloway.

Ireland underage international Ryan Manning has enjoyed a “dream debut” after being suddenly drafted into the QPR first-team, writes Stephen Barry.

The 20-year-old from Galway was only given a squad number 24 hours before he played the full 90 minutes in the centre of the park away to Wolves. What’s more, the Rs scored a late winner to end a six-game losing streak with a 2-1 victory.
