Events

Match Events

0' We are underway at Riverside Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
5' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Anfernee Dijksteel suffering a number of foals already.
7' What a moment for Uche Ikpeazu! That strike on 7 puts his side firmly in control.
12' The travelling Queens Park Rangers FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
17' Queens Park Rangers FC have won 398 goals from 378 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
22' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Middlesbrough FC and Queens Park Rangers FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
27' Queens Park Rangers FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
32' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
37' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
38' Moses Odubajo catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 38.
43' It looks surprising Queens Park Rangers FC does not make any changes. Jimmy Dunne has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
48' What a strike from Jonathan Howson! The score is 1-1.
49' Jonathan Howson puts Queens Park Rangers FC on the lead.
50' That looks like a foul for a Red card for Moses Odubajo.
54' Controversy at the stadium! Isaiah Jones argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
56' Lyndon Dykes adds to his 0 season tally! Queens Park Rangers FC lead 1-3 — and this changes everything.
57' It is a substitution in Queens Park Rangers FC team. Ilias Chair is replaced by Osman Kakay on 57 minute.
58' The Queens Park Rangers FC bench stirs into life. Ilias Chair is withdrawn and Osman Kakay gets his opportunity.
63' Norway international Stefan Johansen has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
68' Queens Park Rangers FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Charlie Austin is hanging Lyndon Dykes on the field on 68 minute.
71' The whistle greets Uche Ikpeazu as he departs to be replaced by Chuba Akpom.
72' Matty Crooks doubles the advantage! 2-3 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
76' What a strike from Chris Willock! The score is 2-4.
81' Supporters expect more eagerness from Grant Hall, as he is very good at scoring at Riverside Stadium with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
86' Martin Payero is replacing Djed Spence for the Middlesbrough FC side.
90' Stefan Johansen was booked on 90.
The referee brings this contest to a close. Queens Park Rangers FC take all three points.
