QPR Says Thank You to AirAsia
SEPANG, 26 JULY 2012 –
The Queens
Park Rangers (QPR) 2012 Asia Tour came to an end on Monday, 23 July 2012
after the team beat local favourites Persebaya in Surabaya, Indonesia.
Before QPR
departed from Surabaya, the team thanked their official partner,
AirAsia with a special thank you message at the Juanda International
Airport.
The team lined up in front of the newly launched Alan Macdonald tribute aircraft which features the QPR livery
holding large placards which spelt ‘THANK YOU AIRASIA’.
The
QPR Asia Tour was held in three different cities beginning with Kota
Kinabalu followed by Kuala Lumpur where
the Rangers respectively beat both Sabah Select and Kelantan FA with a
comfortable 5-0 win. Their last game in Surabaya saw QPR beating
Persebaya with a 2-1 score.
QPR
Team Manager Mark Hughes commented on the tour, “It was the prefect
preparation for us. The tour was great
and one that we will remember for a very long time to come. From our
point of view, it was a fitness preparation and we were able to get a
lot of game time into almost all the squad. In the end we were able to
win all three games, which were important for
us and have helped us prepare for the upcoming Premier League.”
