Nahki Wells’ contentious goal made the difference as Leeds missed a penalty and passed up the chance to reclaim Championship top spot 2.33pm GMT
Well well – so much for QPR’s useless defence. It won them the game here, stifling Leeds throughout the second half despite Bielsa’s side seeing almost all of the ball. Slaven Bilic will be rubbing his hands at that result – West Brom can go four points clear if they win on Monday – while Bielsa is left looking nervously over his shoulder. But the very literal winners here are QPR, who not only showed that they have the attackers to mount a bid for the top flight, but also that their backline are not the mugs we all thought. A late push for promotion? I hope so.
We’ll have a report up shortly – in the meantime, thanks for reading! 2.27pm GMT
And after a bit of time-wasting from the hosts, we’re all done. Leeds players swarm towards the referee, no doubt complaining that the winning goal should never have stood – and they’d be right. But QPR deserved the win here: they shackled the visitors well and attacked with real abandon. The contrast between the tame Bamford and the electric pair of Eze and Osati-Samuel was especially striking. QPR should be setting their sights firmly on the playoffs. Leeds, on the other hand, need a jolt of life.
