Match Recap

Richard Kone needed just 15 minutes to complete a hat-trick, and QPR were only getting started. Swansea arrived at Loftus Road as Championship high-flyers, second in the table on 23 points with four wins in five, but they were torn apart inside a quarter of an hour as Kone struck in the 2nd, 9th and 15th minutes. Jimmy Dunne piled on either side of half-time and late in the second half, turning a rout into a full demolition as QPR ran out 5-0 winners. For a QPR side sitting 10th with just one win in five games before kickoff, it's a result that flips the script entirely, and it also settles the score from their last meeting, which Swansea had won. Five goals, two scorers, zero reply from a team that had been flying. Watch Kone's third in the 15th minute, the moment the game stopped being a contest and became a statement.
