Half-Time Report: Queens Park Rangers, Burnley remain level

Queens Park Rangers have impressed in the first 45 minutes under new manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink but failed to find a breakthrough against Burnley.

It took just two minutes for Joey Barton to get a shot away on his return to Loftus Road, but Rob Green was more than equal to his free kick, before at the other end, Matt Phillips sent a half-volley just over the crossbar.

James Perch also went close, with his deflected attempt just missing the target, before midway through the half, he drilled a shot over the bar after a well-worked move.

Burnley had offered very little in the final third, and that allowed QPR to continue to control large parts of the game, with Phillips forcing a super save out of Tom Heaton on the half-hour mark.

Leroy Fer was proving a handful in a forward position, but he could not find a way past Heaton, before he sent another effort from a cross over the bar.
