Philippe Clement shuffled the pack from the defeat at home to Watford, with Jos\u00e9 Cordoba, Ben Chrisene, and Matej Jur\u00e1sek coming in to start at Loftus Road.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
It took until the 15th minute for the first chance to be registered, as Steve Cook glanced a header narrowly wide of Vladan Kovacevic's post for the hosts. Kovacevic was called into action on the half-hour mark, saving well with his legs after an effort from Rumarn Burrell. Jurasek came close to opening the scoring for the Canaries, but his shot was palmed out for a corner by Paul Nardi.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After a quiet first half, it was the perfect start to the second half as Norwich went ahead a minute after the restart. Jurasek beat his man and crossed to Josh Sargent, who headed in. Pelle Mattson wasn't too far away from adding a second for the Canaries, with the Dane controlling well and striking a volley that was just over Nardi's crossbar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Jovon Makama would secure the points for Norwich, firing beyond Nardi in the sixth minute of injury time. QPR scored a late consolation as Amadou Mbengue scored moments later. The Canaries are back in action on Sunday afternoon, as they welcome Stoke City to Carrow Road in their first home fixture of 2026.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
