Ben Nelson pulled a goal back but QPR held on for their third league win in a row.
“How long was on for the pitch for? I don’t know, five seconds!?! The gaffer always says for the subs to have an impact and that is what I did.
“It was an unbelievalbe feeling to score in that end (in front of 3,000 away fans).
“Hopefully this will be the start of something. It is up to me to keep ticking away. I always want to have an impact on the game.
“This is massive victory coming here to the league leaders and getting three points at King Power stadium – it is an unbelievalbe feeling.”
The win against the league leaders means the Hoops are in 19th position – their -12 goal difference keeps them above the last relegation play-off spot held by Stoke City (with -15). There are four teams on 38 points including QPR.
“The win is very important as you see the position we are in,” said Sinclair speaking to his club’s media team.
