Middlesbrough held on to record a narrow 1-0 win over QPR at Loftus Road - but how did each player fare for Kim Hellberg’s side?
Will Lankshear scored the only goal of the game in the 20th minute, before Boro withstood some late pressure and Rangers winger Harvey Vale hit the post.
Here’s how each Boro player fared:

9. Riley McGree - 6
Operated as an advanced midfielder in front of Morris and Berhalter. Had a few neat moments in possession but couldn’t always get into the game. Replaced early in the second half. 6 | Getty Images

10. Kyle Joseph - 6
Started up front alongside Will Lankshear. Squandered a first-half chance when the ball dropped to him in the box but put himself about. Helped defend from the front when his side were under pressure. 6 | Getty Images

12. Tommy Conway - 6
(for Lankshear, 55) Gave Boro an outlet to run in behind in the second half. Wasn’t able to convert his one big chance, though, when QPR keeper Pierce Charles saved his low effort with his leg. 6 | Getty Images
