Bothroyd heads Rangers into round four
West Brom 0 QPR 1
Jay Bothroyd scored the winner to take QPR into the FA Cup fourth round and continue their excellent recent run under Harry Redknapp.
The out-of-favour striker headed home Alejando Faurlin’s corner with 15 minutes remaining.
Earlier, Rangers keeper Robert Green produced a fine save to keep out Romelu Lukaku’s header.
And after Bothroyd broke the deadlock in what had been a listless replay, Green twice denied Markus Rosenburg.
The R’s – unbeaten in 2013 – face a fourth-round clash with MK Dons, who beat Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 in their replay.
QPR: Green, Onuoha, Hill, Ferdinand, Ben Haim, Mackie, Park (Taarabt 90), Derry, Faurlin, Bothroyd (Mbia 81), Cisse (Wright-Phillips 45).
Subs not used: Murphy, Ephraim, Ehmer, Hulse.
