Queens Park Rangers strike late to beat MK Dons

Queens Park Rangers score three in the final 20 minutes to beat Championship newboys MK Dons.

Three goals in the final 20 minutes have helped Queens Park Rangers beat MK Dons and move into the top half of the Championship.

The Hoops almost took the lead in the early stages as Jay Emmanuel-Thomas's shot was saved by David Martin before the former Liverpool keeper stopped another effort from Tjarron Chery.

Rangers continued to press, with Nedum Onuoha saw his strike closed down by a dogged Dons rearguard before Matt Phillips drove his attempt narrowly wide of the target.

After Robert Hall tried to give the visitors the lead with a speculative shot from distance, both Clint Hill and Karl Henry failed to take their chances to give Rangers a half-time advantage.

However, QPR finally broke through with 20 minutes left as Onuoha teed up Emmanuel-Thomas, who duly steered his effort beyond the reach of Martin, into the corner of the net.

Eight minutes later, Rangers doubled their lead when Phillips found the back of the net after being teed up by Daniel Toszer.

QPR then wrapped up victory in the dying moments as Junior Hoilett came off the bench to score after Hill's cushioned header played in the Canadian winger.
