Bolton Wanderers blew a two-goal lead as Queens Park Rangers fought back to go in level at 2-2 in their Championship encounter after an entertaining 45 minutes at Loftus Road.

After a bright start in which both sides threatened, Gary Madine put his side ahead with his second goal in as many games when he glanced home Lian Feeney's cross.

Karl Henry then saw his appeals for a penalty waved away, before Bolton doubled their lead on 11 minutes when Feeney was on hand to sweep home after Robert Green had parried Darren Pratley's long-range strike.

The hosts quickly pulled one back though when Jay Emmanuel-Thomas headed home Tjaronn Chery's cross as the breathless start to the game continued.

However, the pace soon slowed, and the next chance didn't come until shortly before half time when Nedum Onuoha came within inches of heading his side level from Daniel Tozser's free kick.

Just as it appeared Bolton would go in ahead, Leroy Fer stabbed home from close range after his header had been saved by Ben Amos.
