Ramsey hails QPR after Aston Villa fightback

Chris Ramsey was proud of his QPR side for their second-half performance at Aston Villa on Tuesday night.

The R's drew 3-3 at Villa Park to move from 19th to 18th on the Premier League table as Tim Sherwood's Villa remained three points clear of the drop zone.

Ramsey's outfit found themselves 2-1 down at the break before rallying to lead 3-2 with seven minutes remaining prior to Christian Benteke's third goal of the night which forced the two clubs to share the points.

Of QPR's performance, Ramsey told the club's official website: "We caused our own problems, our technique was poor, we gave the ball away a lot and we rode our luck.

"We wouldn't like to give away three goals in the manner that we did. The goals were schoolboy errors.

"But in the second half I thought we were fantastic and gave the travelling fans something to cheer about. All credit to them."
