Half-Time Report: Charlton keeper Nick Pope keeps stalemate against QPR, Chery comes closest

Both Charlton Athletic and Queens Park Rangers were unable to find the goal in the first 45 minutes of their new season.

QPR dominated the game's early chances, with striker Charlie Austin firing wide on two occasions.

Charlton's Johann Gudmondsson created space for a shot from 25 yards, but his effort went wide.

Tjaronn Chery came close to giving Rangers the lead twice, first with a free kick that curled just wide, before a 25-yard strike was saved by Nick Pope.
