Leicester 1-2 QPR
Paul Furlong struck in the dying minutes and was then sent off as QPR beat 10-man Leicester.
Marc Nygaard had headed the visitors in front early on before Alan Maybury was red carded for the hosts.
Substitute Elvis Hammond equalised with his first goal for the club, only for Furlong to net the winner, his miscued shot wrong-footing Robert Douglas.
The striker was then sent off after an off-the-ball clash with Joey Gudjonsson earnt him a second yellow card.

Leicester boss Craig Levein:
"I've no complaints about Alan Maybury's sending off. It was reckless and stupid and the referee made a correct decision and Alan had to go.
"That left us with 10 men and a difficult afternoon. But we got back into the match and then they scored a lucky goal which wasn't a clean strike.
"If it had been then our goalkeeper would have got to the ball - it was just so disappointing to lose the match in such a manner."
QPR manager Ian Holloway:
"When their man was sent off, it seemed to wake up the crowd and give them someone to get their teeth into and fortunately for us that was the referee.
"But I thought we didn't play very well against 10 men.
"We could have hung on to the ball and passed it about better. But I thought we deserved credit to hang on and I thought we just about shaded it.
