City lacked sharpness in QPR defeat - Struber

Struber's Bristol City side have lost two of their last three games at home

Frustrated Bristol City head coach Gerhard Struber lamented his side's lack of sharpness at both ends of the pitch after they let a half-time lead slip at home to QPR.

The Robins, who are now without a win in their last four games, went in front at Ashton Gate when Emil Riis headed his fourth goal of the campaign before the visitors struck back to take the points through second-half goals by Richard Kone and Paul Smyth.

"This is a typical moment from the Championship," Struber told BBC Radio Bristol.

"You have to be sharp in all moments and we have not had the sharpness in two boxes in the second half which you need – in both directions we were not sharp and we gifted this game so cheaply.

"We had enough chances to win this game. They are really good at the moment and you have to stretch your performance because this was not enough.

"It's a shame we got out with nothing when we can see so many good moments, how we break them down, how we play against the deep block and create chances against them – this was very good to see.

"This is the frustration, I can see my boys in really good moments but in two or three moments we're not ready and lose this game."
