A memorable evening for departing QPR defender Steve Cook turned sour as Swansea capitalized on an early mistake to win 2-1. Cook, making his 100th and final appearance for Rangers, inadvertently gifted the visitors an early lead when his attempted clearance resulted in Ronald scoring. Despite a spirited response from the hosts, Swansea doubled their advantage through a contentious penalty converted by Vipotnik, before Rhys Norrington-Davies netted a late consolation for QPR.
The result had little bearing on the season, with both teams firmly entrenched in mid-table. Cook, who has yet to confirm his future plans, received a standing ovation upon his substitution, with QPR manager Julien Stephan praising his contributions to the club.
Swansea boss Vitor Matos expressed satisfaction with his team's performance, although he disagreed with the penalty decision that sealed the win for his side.
