Peterborough United 2-0 Queens Park Rangers: Ricky-Jade Jones and Joe Ward goals send Posh into fifth round

Joe Ward and Ricky-Jade Jones netted their first goals of the season as Peterborough knocked Queen's Park Rangers out of the FA Cup.

Ward slotted in midway through the first half before teenage substitute Jones sealed the win.

Rangers dominated and Ilias Chair hit the bar, but they could not find a way beyond goalkeeper Steven Benda.

Posh's victory means they will appear in the fifth round for the first time since 1986.

QPR restored Chair to their midfield following his Africa Cup of Nations trip, and the Morocco international pulled the strings as the visitors controlled possession.

Chair tested Benda from distance and also whipped in a quick corner for Charlie Austin, whose effort flew over - yet Posh immediately went in front with their first real attack of the game.

Kwame Poku's run and cross from the left found Jeando Fuchs, whose shot was blocked, but the deflection fell for Ward to steer beyond goalkeeper David Marshall.

Rangers applied pressure in response, with Benda denying Moses Odubajo at close range, and Lyndon Dykes turning Chair's cross wide, but they trailed at the interval and responded with a double substitution.

One of the new introductions, Albert Adomah, almost levelled with his first touch as he met Odubajo's cross, only to be foiled by another brave stop from Benda.

Chair's free-kick then clipped the woodwork, but the home side dug in and Jones made it 2-0 on the break with 18 minutes left, collecting Bali Mumba's through ball and firing into the far corner.
