QPR goal

QPR sit top of the Championship table with two wins from their opening two matches.

The outstanding Steven Caulker put them ahead and Tjaronn Chery’s late penalty sealed a 2-0 victory at Cardiff City.

Rangers boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink praised Caulker but insisted the whole team deserved credit for the win.

A number of QPR players posted on Twitter afterwards as they savoured the result.

But Ben Gladwin faces a scan after suffering an ankle injury during the first half.

Meanwhile, Chelsea have confirmed that defender Michael Hector has agreed a season-long loan move to German club Eintracht Frankfurt.

Chelsea’s development side began their season with a 1-1 draw at Sunderland, where a bizarre own goal gifted the visitors an equaliser.

In cricket, Middlesex batsman Nick Compton expressed relief after hitting 131 against Durham – his first century in almost a year.

And Mo Farah is celebrating after retaining his 10,000m Olympic title in brilliant fashion in Rio.
