Anyone watching? Similar to the previous game, playing out from the back, lots of passing, not much up front, but creating lots of chances.

Finished 2-1 QPR. Amos with both goals. We really do have some skillful players, I can't work out what out backline will be this year as they all played well. I like the young kid form Liverpool. Lots of positives.

Could you please enlighten us with who played today surreychad?
I have great hopes for Masterson (based on absolutely nothing!) & if Cameron is not coming (those rumours seem to have died), perhaps he will be partnering Barbet this season.
Anyhow, the first win of the season!

Match report from the Brent & Kilburn Times www.kilburntimes.co.uk/sport/football/queens-park-rangers/qpr-record-first-win-pre-season-against-oxford-united-1-6171696QPR record first win of pre-season against Oxford UnitedPUBLISHED: 16:57 20 July 2019 | UPDATED: 17:28 20 July 2019 Dan Bennett Pre-season: Oxford United 1 QPR 2QPR secured their first win of pre-season at the third attempt by beating Oxford United 2-1 at the Kassam Stadium. A double from Luke Amos gave the Rs victory, Mark Warburton's first for the club. The first real chance of the first half came on 17 minutes when Josh Scowen picked up the ball in midfield and played a cross to Bright Osayi-Samuel at the back post, who could only head wide. Rangers went ahead on 31 minutes when Ebere Eze picked out loanee Luke Amos at the back post from a corner, who made no mistake heading in from close range. Amos doubled his side's lead and his goal tally for the afternoon just two minutes later when Ryan Manning's pinpoint cross again found the 22-year-old who headed home. But Oxford responded well and found a goal back on 28 minutes when Alex Gorrin found space on the edge of the box and curled past Joe Lumley, who could only stand and watch. It could have been three for QPR just before the break but Josh Scowen's effort when through on goal bounced back off the post. The Rs started the second half well as Eze flashed an effort wide on 50 minutes from inside the box. Bright Osayi-Samuel had a golden opportunity to make it three two minutes later but somehow smashed the bar when clean through on goal with the Oxford defence nowhere to be seen. The hour mark saw five changes for Warburton's side as Conor Masterson, Toni Leistner, Niko Hamalainen, Charlie Owens and Ilias Chair were all introduced. Scowen, who looked bright all afternoon, breathed a sigh of relief just minutes later as his loss of possession deep in his own half was not taken advantage of by their opponents. Oxford came close to equalising on 83 minutes when substitute Tony McMahon's curling free-kick hit the crossbar. But the Hoops were able to see out the game for their first pre-season win. Up next for is a home game against Watford next Saturday before the season starts the following weekend away at Stoke City.
