Nothing Toulouse vs. QPR: Match Recap

Those who believe in numerology will note that 2 was the principle number in yesterday's match. QPR draws its second match of the season in as many outings - second draw in a row and second in history - with a 2-2 draw.

In the opening minutes Nothing Toulouse set the tone by playing a very physical match, often beyond the rule book, collecting 3 yellow cards in the process.

QPR opened the scoring with debuting Bovdis, who buried a ball that came across goal, spiking it down and passed the opposing goalkeeper.

Nothing Toulouse, however, kept their spirits up, and equalized on a counter attack, first and scoring on a penalty shortly afterwards.

At halftime, QPR regrouped and became more resolute, creating more scoring chances. In the last 5 minutes of the game, QPR mounted the pressure on Nothing Toulouse, scoring on a defensive mishap, with Yanful flicking the ball backwards on an odd angle to seal it at 2-2.

"We played a rough side who were lucky to finish at full strength. We have increased our scoring chances over last game, and we made some forward strides in our game play. The wins will come", Fasano said at full time.

After the match, the boys took part in "the third half", making merry at new sponsor W Burger Bar's Caledonia location (pic below).
