Latest: Wigan 0 QPR 0

QPR made a good start to the second half of the Championship play-off semi-final first leg, with Armand Traore’s shot bringing a save from Wigan keeper Scott Carson.

In the first half, Gary Caldwell headed straight at Rangers keeper Rob Green from a cross Jordi Gomez, whose low shot shortly before the interval produced a save from Green at his near post.

Roared on by more than 3,000 travelling fans, Rangers defended resolutely in the opening 45 minutes and had the occasional sight of goal

Gary O’Neil had an effort blocked after being set up by QPR’s top scorer Charlie Austin and Traore headed over from Junior Hoilett’s cross.

Veteran centre-back Richard Dunne, back in the R’s starting line-up, has struggled at times and is on a yellow card, having been booked for a foul on Callum McManaman.

After a decent spell by the visitors early in the second half, they survived a scare at the other end when James Perch failed to make contact with Jean Beausejour’s fine cross.

QPR: Green, Simpson, Onuoha, Dunne, Hill, Hoilett, Barton, O’Neil, Traore, Morrison, Austin.
