QPR No2 Bowen has no problem with Man Utd winger Young antics

QPR No2 Mark Bowen has no problem with Manchester United winger Ashley Young.

Young went down easily under a soft challenge from Shaun Derry to win a penalty for United and see the midfielder sent off.

"Of course we thought the penalty was harsh but in fairness there is no blame [attached] to Ashley Young," Bowen told talkSPORT.

"He felt contact and we are the first to say to our players 'if you feel contact in the box, go down', because you are looking for any advantage you can get. If he feels contact, he is entitled to go down."
