Harford praise for goalscoring duo

Mick Harford was full of praise for goalscorers Adel Taarabt and Matt Connolly after they ensured his first game back in charge of QPR did not end in defeat. On-loan Tottenham forward Taarabt scored with a coolly-taken chipped penalty and Connolly secured a 2-2 draw at Blackpool with a long-range strike for his first goal for the club. "Adel was outstanding," said Harford. "He is a very talented player. I didn't know what he was going to do with the penalty but credit to him for having the confidence to score it the way he did. "Matt's was a wonderful strike. I saw it - but I have to admit I didn't see that coming from him!"
