Sheffield United v. QPR (12 January: Championship Match 27) [R]

[Atouk]

We're underway.

R's XI: Camp; Barker, Hall, Stewart, Connolly; Keiran Lee, Rowlands, Mahon, Vine; Buzsaky, Agyemang.

Bench: Ephraim, Walton, Bolder, Blackstock, Ainsworth.

That's the most quality we've had on the bench in a long time.

I belive the commentators said Vine was wide left and Lee was wide right, so I assume Rowlands is in the middle with Mahon behind Buzsaky in a withdrawn striker role and Agyemang up front.

[R] in this thread for all Championship and Premier League games.

Not much action thus far. First shot of the game by Buzsaky. From 25 yards or so. Simple save for the keeper. One corner for Sheff U, none for us.

Just now, another nice move by Buzsaky put them under pressure, but they tackled it out for our first corner, which came to nothing.

QPR fans in good voice at Bramall Lane.

COME ON YOU RRRRRRRRRRRRs

[Atouk]

R's are doing better. Second corner for the R's resulted in a foul on Connolly about four yards outside the box. Buzsaky put the freekick on target and the keeper was forced to push it over for our third corner. It same to nothing, but we're doing better now and most of it is through Buzsaky.

[Atouk]

Camp caught in 'no man's land' on a corner, but Rob Hulse's header for the Blades wasn't on target.

They've been busy in the Valley, with Charlton leading Blackpool 2-1 already.

Barnsley leads Norwich, 1-0.

Ipwich leads Stoke, 1-0.

Leicester leads Coventry, 1-0.

The only away team leading thus far is Colchester, who is 1-0 up at Bristol City.

[Atouk]

Sheff U is making Camp work at the moment. The Blades have come back into it a little bit.

[Atouk]

Charlton is now up 3-1 over Blackpool.

Stoke has drawn level at Ipswich.

Bristol City has scored to make it 1-1 at home against Colchester.

Southampton is up 1-0 against Scunthorpe.

Palace has taken a 1-0 lead at Wolves.

[Atouk]

Sheff U put it in the net, but the flag had gone up quickly. Commentators say the man was a yard off.

[Atouk]

Agyemang scores!!!! Goal QPR! 45th minute goal for the R's!!!

[MetroAnt]

AGYEMANG!!!!! 1-0 to the Rangers Boys!

[Atouk]

Ball in from Buzsaky, Lee heads it, it rebounded off a Sheff U player and falls to Agyemang's feet and he knocks it home from about 8 yards.

The Blades fans weren't happy that the ball hadn't been previously played out because a United man was down injured.

[Atouk]

Trouble on the other end. Bad clearance from Hall, but the R's got away with it.

Ball in from Buzsaky, Lee heads it, it rebounded off a Sheff U player and falls to Agyemang's feet and he knocks it home from about 8 yards.
Not sure the above is an accurate account, since here's what QPR World says:

Cross by Matthew Connolly(QPR), goal by Patrick Agyemang(QPR) right-footed (high centre of goal) from centre of penalty area (6 yards).

[Atouk]

Sheffield United 1-0 QPR
HALF TIME

UUUUURRRRRs! :D

[doolittledog2]

I thought the RRR's were supposed to give up 45th minute goals...not score them!!!

[Atouk]

Underway in the 2nd. No changes. UUURRRs!

[Atouk]

Crap. 1-1. Looks like Stewart cleared it into Rowlands and it bounced in for an own goal.

[MetroAnt]

ugh I can't stand Lee Hendrie. 1-2

[MetroAnt]

Blackstock on for Barker.
