Queens Park Rangers 4-2 Stoke City: Lyndon Dykes double helps Hoops to first home win

Queens Park Rangers finally won at home for the first time this season as they came from behind to beat 10-man Stoke City.

But they needed luck on their side to record their first victory at Loftus Road.

The hosts led through an 11th-minute Lyndon Dykes penalty, which also earned Stoke defender Enda Stevens a yellow card.

The Potters levelled through summer signing Ryan Mmaee before the break, only for Stevens to then be sent off for a 53rd-minute challenge on Elias Chair, his second bookable offence.

Six minutes later, 10-man Stoke went ahead with a delightful solo effort from Wouter Burger, but Dykes controlled, turned and fired home all in one movement to triple his goal haul for the season.
