It’s certainly been a lively opening to this one.

QPR very much on top here, giving the visitors no time in midfield and getting the ball to the strikers as quick as possible which is causing lots of problems.

GOAL! QPR 1 Sheffield United 0 (Sylla)

The weirdest goal I’ve ever seen.

Jamal Blackman jumped for the ball and collided with Cameron Carter-Vickers and dropped the ball, leaving Sylla with the task of tapping home.

Blackman is still on the floor receiving treatment.
