QPR and Bristol City Play Out Goalless Draw

QPR and Bristol City extended their unbeaten streaks with a 0-0 stalemate at Loftus Road. The Robins remain undefeated under interim manager Roy Hodgson, having won their first two matches since his appointment. Meanwhile, QPR are now five games unbeaten and welcomed back Rumarn Burrell from a three-month injury layoff. Bristol City had the better chances in the first half, with Scott Twine's half-volley being the closest to breaking the deadlock. Goalkeeper Joe Walsh made several crucial saves to deny the visitors. At the other end, QPR's Kieran Morgan and Richard Kone had opportunities, but were unable to capitalize. After the break, Walsh continued to impress, pushing away a shot from Twine and Smyth sliced a shot wide. QPR head coach Julien Stephan made changes to his forward line, introducing Burrell and Daniel Bennie, but the visitors' defense held firm. Bristol City have kept consecutive clean sheets under Hodgson, who has transformed the team since taking charge. Both teams worked tirelessly, but clear-cut chances were scarce in the closing stages. The match ended with Tomi Horvat over-hitting a pass, allowing Walsh to collect. QPR's Julien Stephan praised his team's effort, while Bristol City's Roy Hodgson felt the teams cancelled each other out. Hodgson expressed his desire to see more adventure from his team, but acknowledged the limited time he has had to work with them.
