Pressure mounts on Cifuentes after miserable return

MARTI CIFUENTES admitted a punishing defeat on his return to QPR was “emotionally tough” to take.

- 

In Cifuentes' first game at Loftus Road since an acrimonious departure from Rangers earlier this year, his team were four down after a nightmare first half.

Koki Saito opened the scoring in only the second minute, and goals from Richard Kone, Karamoko Dembele and Amadou Mbengue put the hosts in complete control.

Cifuentes has endured a difficult start at Leicester since taking over in the summer and, after an encouraging total of seven points from their previous three matches, this result puts him back under serious pressure.
