  3. Gray's best goal?published at 21:53 Greenwich Mean Time 29 November 2021

    FT: Derby 1-2 QPR

    QPR winning goalscorer Andre Gray tells Sky Sports:

    "That's probably definitely the best," he joked when asked if that was his best-ever goal.

    "I knew I wasn't fit to start after three weeks off, but I wanted to be on the bench.

    "The physio tried to pull me back for another week, but I felt good and I felt strong and I was pushing to be involved."

    FT: Derby 1-2 QPR

    Let's not forget the other two goals in this match.

    Tom Lawrence's early strike for Derby into the top corner was excellent.

    The equaliser from Chris Willock - a volley at the far post from Charlie Austin's lovely cross after a great counter attack was also great.

    But Andre Gray's winner - wow!

    Those two keepy-uppys before that controlled volley into the top corner was immense.

    What. A. Goal.

    Chrs Willock's cross to the far post is headed against the upright by Ilias Chair.

    It bounces out to QPR substitute Andre Gray who has two touches in the air before a controlled volley on the turn into the top corner.

    Top drawer stuff.

    Festy Ebosele does really well to win a corner on the right for Derby with a strong run.

    Max Bird's corner flashes across the face of goal but the visitors clear.

    It's getting a bit scrappy now as both sides search for a late winner.

    Derby have a good period of possession but their final pass isn't great and Rangers clear.

    Derby 1-1 QPR

    Another chance for QPR.

    Lovely pass by Chris Willock to Andre Gray, but his touch takes him wide and he shoots over, but it takes a touch and QPR win a corner.

    Derby's defender clears off his own man from the corner, but the referee though it was a QPR player and the hosts get away with one.

    Derby 1-1 QPR

    Lovely recovery tackle by Nathan Byrne to dispossess Ilias Chair in the area.

    The Derby defender had slipped in the build up.

    The corner came in and Jimmy Dunne has an air shot - he claims Max Bird pulled his shirt, but Derby survive.

    Just before those changes Andre Gray blasted a shot from the edge of the box into the Derby net but he was well offside.

    Derby make a double change.

    Colin Kazim-Richards and Festy Ebosele come on with Graeme Shinnie and Jason Knight making way.

    Can these be the attacking changes that unlock the QPR defence?

    Charlie Austin is coming off for Andre Gray.

    His celebration for the QPR equaliser ensures he gets a nice round of boos!

    Derby 1-1 QPR

    Good pressure from QPR and Ilias Chair wins a corner.

    Chair floats the corner in, it's not cleared and Yann Barbet fires from a couple of yards out at the near post - but it's straight at Kelle Roos and the Derby keeper holds on well.

    How did he miss that?

    Ilias Chair heads over from six yards after a lovely cross from Chris Willock from the left.

    Should be 2-1 to QPR.
