Football: QPR sunk by smashing City

Manchester City 6-0 QPR

SERGIO AGUERO scored a hat-trick as QPR slumped to relegation without a whimper in an embarrassing 6-0 defeat yesterday at Manchester City.

The Premier League’s bottom side failed to rouse themselves for a must-win game at Eastlands and seemed condemned after conceding Aguero’s first after just four minutes.

Aleksandar Kolarov, James Milner and David Silva also got on the scoresheet as rampant City, who hit the woodwork as well through Wilfried Bony, kept up their challenge for second place with a fourth successive win.

But the story of the afternoon was about QPR’s sorry demise after just one season back in the top flight.

Questions will now be asked about the future of manager Chris Ramsey and, perhaps more seriously, the status of the club itself with the Football League’s position over their financial situation still unclear.
