A clinical brace from Matt Phillips spearheaded a QPR comeback which saw them defeat Wolves 3-2.
Both Benik Afobe and Massimo Luongo came close in the opening ten minutes before the Wolves striker gave the home side the lead after 16 minutes. Kevin McDonald added a second in quick succession before Charlie Austin got one back eight minutes before the break.
Philips levelled things minutes after the restart before Nedum Onouha and Afobe had great opportunities to put their respective sides ahead before Phillips added his second to seal the win 18 minutes from time.
The home side came very close to taking the lead only a minute in when Dave Edwards’ cross was met by Afobe, but his close-range header went agonisingly wide of the target.
It was end-to-end stuff in the opening proceedings with the visitors coming close in the sixth minute, former Wolves man, Karl Henry teed it up for Luongo outside of the area but his sweet shot was well saved by Emiliano Martinez.
Afobe opens the scoring
Afobe made up for his missed opportunity in the opening seconds when he gave Wolves the lead 16 minutes in, it was James Henry's deflected pass fell to the feet to Afobe who drilled it past Rob Green into the bottom corner.
McDonald doubles the lead
Ranger’s remained positive but found themselves further behind seven minutes after the first goal, it was Henry once again when his looped cross fell to McDonald on the edge of the area and hit it brilliantly first time into the bottom corner.
Austin gets one back
Rangers managed to get one back just before the break, Matthew Phillips whipped an excellent ball into a dangerous which found Austin who did what he does best and hit a powerful header into the back of the net.
The final opportunity of the half fell to Phillips who attempted the spectacular from quite a difficult angle, but it was straight at Martinez.
Afobe Had an excellent opportunity to grab a second just after the restart when he managed to get beyond the two defenders and charged down on goal but Green managed to pull off a great save to keep the depict to one.
Phillips equalises
Phillips, who had caused problems in the first period, managed to get the equaliser in the 52nd minute, he cut inside from the right wing before hitting his effort which managed to trickle into the far corner of the net.
They nearly took the lead three minutes later when Onouha was picked out at the far-post from the free-kick which forced Martinez to pull out a magnificent save. Afobe had the crowd on their feet in celebration just after the hour mark when he curled a free-kick which looked to be heading but only found the side netting.
Phillips scores the winner
Phillips caused problems all evening and proved key once again 20 minutes from time when he gave QPR the lead for the first time, the English winger found space 25-yards out and hit an excellent, accurate strike into the top corner.
QPR continued to push to help secure the victory and almost grabbed it nine minutes from time when Luongo was played in behind the defence but Martinez came out brilliantly to block the effort.
