    FT: Watford 1-2 QPR

    That's just a second home defeat of the season for Watford.

    The Hornets had won 10 of their 13 games at Vicarage Road before the visit of Rangers.

    Defeat actually sees Xisco Munoz's side drop a place in the table to fifth, behind Reading on goals scored.

    Watford 1-2 QPR

    QPR hang on to end Watford's four-match unbeaten run and deny the Hornets the chance to go third in the Championship.

    Goals from Charlie Austin and Albert Adomah turned the game around after Troy Deeney had put the Hornets ahead from the penalty spot.

    It's three straight away wins for Rangers, who are up to 17th in the table.

    GOAL: Watford 1-2 QPRpublished at 90 mins

    Albert Adomah

    QPR have surely snatched it at the death, and what a finish it is!

    Todd Kane puts in a cross from the right.

    The ball is behind Albert Adomah but he brings it down brilliantly before tucking the ball in from close range.

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    Macauley Bonne is replaced by George Thomas for QPR.

    Watford have a free-kick just inside the Rangers half, but it's too close to Seny Dieng.

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    Ismaila Sarr gets on the ball in the Rangers box but has the ball taken away from him before he can make anything from it.

    Then Rangers forward Macauley Bonne goes down clutching his calf while chasing a ball forward.

    That could be it for him.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 84 mins

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    Now it's Watford making a couple of substitutes.

    Ben Wilmot and Philip Zinckernagel come on.

    Jeremy Ngakia and Nathaniel Chalobah head for the bench.

    The changes have disrupted the flow of the game somewhat.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 82 mins

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    A couple more changes for the visitors.

    Playmaker Ilias Chair and goalscorer Charlie Austin are withdrawn.

    Albert Adomah and Charlie Kelman enter the fray.

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    This game has really come alive.

    Ken Sema is causing the Rangers defence all kinds of problems on the left flank.

    He has looked a real livewire since coming off the bench.

  13. Postpublished at 80 mins

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    Substitute Chris Willock draws Hornets keeper Daniel Bachmann into a save.

    The winger shot low and hard from the edge of the box, but it wasn't close enough to the corner.

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    Watford striker Troy Deeney is almost on the end of a cross from the left, but Rangers keeper Seny Dieng does enough to palm the ball away under pressure.

    The visitors probably would have expected a free-kick for pressure on the keeper, but didn't get one.

  15. Postpublished at 76 mins

    Watford 1-1 QPR

    Crucial block by R's centre-back Rob Dickie.

    He's in the right place to divert Tom Cleverley's low shot away on his own goalline.

    Charlie Austin

    It's been coming.

    Chris Willock gets the ball from a throw-in on the right and twists one way and then the other to work time and space for a cross.

    He digs out a cross and Charlie Austin is on hand to head in powerfully and equalise for the visitors.

    That's Austin's 50th goal for the club over his two spells with the R's.

    Watford 1-0 QPR

    QPR have rallied well in the past 10 minutes and are not out of this contest.

    Lee Wallace sends in a ball from the left and Macauley Bonne slides in to get on the end of it.

    But Watford keeper Daniel Bachmann is down to gather. It was right at him.

    In the meantime, Tom Cleverley needs a bit of treatment.

    Watford 1-0 QPR

    Another close-but-so-far-away moment for the visitors.

    Todd Kane latches onto a headed clearance and nods back across goal.

    The ball drops wide but Hornets keeper Daniel Bachmann didn't look too bothered.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 67 mins

    Watford 1-0 QPR

    A few changes.

    Watford introduce Ken Sema and Andre Gray for Will Hughes and Joao Pedro.

    For the visitors, Chris Willock is on for debutant Stefan Johansen.

  20. Postpublished at 66 mins

    Watford 1-0 QPR

    Nervy moment for Watford.

    Todd Kane sends a first-time volleyed cross back across goal.

    The ball flashes past Macauley Bonne before the R's man can get on the end of it.
