FT: QPR 0-2 Stoke City
Stoke bounce back after back-to-back defeats.
QPR beaten for the first time in seven matches as luck just didn't seem to go their way.
It might have been a different story had Charlie Austin converted that penalty, but Adam Davies just could not be beaten.
Mario Vrancic crowned man of the match for the visitors.

They climb up to sixth and move a point behind QPR in the process.
Goals from Tyrese Campbell and Mario Vrancic in either half do the business.

Andre Gray then can't find a way past the Stoke keeper from the following corner with a drive at his body.

FIVE more minutes being added on.

Steven Fletcher makes way in Stoke's final change with Tom Ince coming on in his place.
A big hand for Stoke's number nine from the travelling support and he returns the gesture before heading off.

Last knockings in this one but QPR still striving to get something from it.
Chris Willock lofts a ball hopefully into the box but Adam Davies confidently comes out to claim it two-handed.

And another fine stop from Adam Davies.
Ilias Chair this time can't get past him with his well-struck half-volley from outside the penalty area.
George Thomas then goes close again with a glancing header from the corner that creeps wide of the far post.
QPR 0-2 Stoke City
George Thomas again denied by Adam Davies.
It breaks through to him 10 yards out on his left, but Davies blocks with his left boot.
QPR 0-2 Stoke City
George Thomas' first involvement off the bench sees him get a backwards header on target after meeting a ball over the top.
Easy pickings though for Adam Davies on an afternoon where he has not put a foot wrong in Stoke's goal.
QPR 0-2 Stoke City
Image source, Getty ImagesSome afternoon this has been for Mario Vrancic.
Involved in all the major talking points so far. It was his foul on Yoann Barbet that conceded the penalty that, thankfully for him, Adam Davies saved.
Morgan Fox, meanwhile, flashes a header just over the crossbar as Stoke go looking for a third goal.
QPR 0-2 Stoke City
George Thomas is on as QPR's second change.
A frustrated Sam Field makes way.
Mario Vrancic
Image source, Getty ImagesThat might answer my previous question!
The Potters double their lead and Mario Vrancic does so with a fine solo run and finish to go alongside his earlier assist for Tyrese Campbell's goal.
He picks up the ball in space midway through the QPR half, nobody comes to close him down and it allows him the time to pick out the bottom right corner with a side-foot finish on his right foot.
QPR 0-1 Stoke City
Into the last 15 minutes.
Are Stoke going to see this one out or have QPR still got a way of getting through them?

11 corners become 12 with Steven Fletcher heading behind this time, but again QPR can't find a free player in the box.
Frustrations continue for the hosts.
Charlie Austin, having missed that penalty earlier, makes way for Andre Gray. Can he repeat his heroics of Monday night?

QPR win another corner, their 10th of the afternoon.
Not to be this time as Ben Wilmot wins the first ball and heads it behind for their 11th...
QPR 0-1 Stoke City
Tommy Smith goes close this time with a legitimate effort for Stoke.
Steven Fletcher again winning the aerial battle to head it into the full-back's path for a right-foot drive that skims the side-netting.
QPR 0-1 Stoke City
Incidentally, QPR could only name six of their permitted seven subs today due to illness and injury in their squad.
Has that perhaps been a factor working against Mark Warburton's side today?
Meanwhile, Jacob Brown has the ball in the net for Stoke, but it won't count.
He strayed just marginally offside from Steven Fletcher's nod down.
QPR 0-1 Stoke City
Second Stoke change as goalscorer Tyrese Campbell makes way after that earlier knock.
Jacob Brown is on to replace him.
QPR also bring on Luke Amos in place of Andre Dozzell.
