The hosts had the better of the chances but Rangers put them under more and more pressure as the half wore on.

QPR began the brighter and put the home side under pressure with a series of early corners, but could not manage a meaningful effort on target.

The best chance of the half fell to Jermaine Beckford, who outpaced Richard Dunne easily before dragging his effort wide after 16 minutes.

Shortly after that Jay Spearing saw his free kick flick off the wall and over the bar, before Robert Green tipped Medo's long-range effort onto the post.

Rangers dominated possession thereafter but were unable to create anything clear cut, and had to be content with a goalless first 45 minutes.
