QPR manager Gareth Ainsworth insisted 'there was nothing in the game' after his side were beaten 1-0 by Ipswich Town at Loftus Road this afternoon.

Conor Chaplin's 75th minute finish proved the difference in a fine margins affair as the newly-promoted Blues continued their perfect start to the Championship season.

"There was nothing in the game, honestly," said Ainsworth.

"How we haven’t scored I don't know. Sinclair (Armstrong) hits both posts in one shot, it's destined to nestle in the corner off one of the posts, and then we miss for a yard out (Osman Kakay in the second half at 0-0).

"We had some really good chances today and if we put them to bed, then I think we put Ipswich to bed, I really do. It’s a different game then.

"But Conor Chaplin, what a good player, popped up, right place, right time, poked it through Morgan (Fox)’s legs into the corner and that’s the difference today."

He continued: "I'm gutted we haven’t got anything out of that game but I’m also hugely happy with the performance, the commitment and the showing of some players.

"I know that we’re not at full strength yet too, which is even better. It gives me more optimism for the season.

"For me, I’ve got to look past the result. We’re a mile away from where we were last season (narrowly escaping relegation), so it’s all good to see.

"The boys were brilliant, the boys gave me everything. With fitness and with robustness ramping up we’ll probably be at our absolute best after the international break.

“I think we’re going to be fine. Write us off at your peril this year.”
