QPR had lost its previous three Premier League matches in a row and they were under huge pressure before this match. It was very important for them to win this match. Although, they didn’t manage to secure victory, they surely played better than the previous matches.

In the post match press conference, Mark Hughes said, “It was certainly a better performance from the boys. It would have been wonderful to walk away with a win, but, unfortunately, we didn’t manage to do so.”

“The body language of the players was fantastic. They gave their 100%, but, we should also give due credit to the opposing team. Everton is a very strong side and they have got some high quality defenders. Overall, I am quite happy with the performance of the boys today.”

The Rangers made a fantastic start to the match and managed to take the lead in the 2nd minute of the match. Junior Hoilett was the one who took QPR ahead in the match. But, the scores got levelled when Julio Cesar scored an own goal in the 33rd minute.

Both the teams failed in scoring another goal in the remaining time and the match finished without any result. QPR will play against Arsenal in its next match at the Emirates Stadium on 27th of October.
