QPR 1 Wolves 0

Mick McCarthy's men saw their run of good form halted by defeat at QPR on Saturday evening.

Martin Rowlands did the damage for the home side, scoring from distance after 63 minutes against the Championship leaders.

Wolves' lead is now restricted to just three points after Birmingham beat Watford 3-2.

Wolves had keeper Wayne Hennessey to thank for a series of early saves as the visitors took their time to get going.

A well worked first half free kick, which saw Dave Edwards and David Jones combine, went just wide.

Other chances were missed before Rowlands' strike condemned Wolves to a first defeat in nine games.

Wolves could not find an equaliser but remain seven points clear of third placed Reading in the play-off positions.
