Smyth's Late Header Completes QPR Comeback At Ashton Gate

ยท Match Report

Queens Park Rangers extended their unbeaten run to six Championship matches with a stirring 2-1 comeback victory over Bristol City, overturning a first-half deficit through second-half strikes from Richard Kone and substitute Paul Smyth at Ashton Gate.

Emil Riis had given the Robins a deserved lead on 32 minutes, heading home his fourth goal of the campaign from a Neto Borges cross after the hosts had created the clearest openings, only to be punished for a succession of missed chances and uncertain defending in their own box after the interval.

For Julien Stephan's side, it was the first time this season they had recovered from going behind, while for Gerhard Struber and City it was a second home match in four days in which they let a lead slip, despite again fashioning enough opportunities to take more than a solitary point from a demanding week.
