United\u2019s tails were up and there was simply no stopping them or the sensational strike from <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/jogador\/tyrese-campbell-172240\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tyrese Campbell<\/a> who unleashed a venomous swerving left-footed shot which curved away from the QPR goalkeeper and into the far corner.<\/p>\n<p>Lineups<\/p>\n<p>QPR: Walsh, Dunne, Clarke-Salter (Mbengue 69), Saito, Vale, Morgan, Kone, Bennie (Kolli 45), Esquerdinha (Bennie 45), Edwards, Varane (Hayden 59).<\/p>\n<p>Unused: Hamer, Adamson, Cook, Pearman, Smith.<\/p>\n<p>Blades:\u00a0A. Davies, Tanganga, Bindon, Cannon (Bamford 87), O\u2019Hare (Hjelde 87), Hoever, Burrows, Campbell (Brooks 59), Chong (Hamer 59), Peck, Riedewald (Arblaster 75).<\/p>\n<p>Unused: Faxon, McGuinness, Seriki, Rothwell.<\/p>\n<p>First Half<\/p>\n<p>United began on the front foot and were rewarded for their early intent inside 13 minutes. A sharp move down the right saw <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/jogador\/sydie-peck-520413\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sydie Peck<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/jogador\/tahith-chong-194662\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tahith Chong<\/a> combine cleverly to stretch the defence. The resulting delivery found Callum O\u2019Hare arriving at the far post, and the midfielder showed composure to squeeze his close-range effort home and give the Blades a deserved lead.<\/p>\n<p>The visitors continued to press with purpose and nearly doubled their advantage ten minutes later. O\u2019Hare was again at the heart of the move, collecting Ki-Jana Hoever\u2019s low cross and teeing up <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/jogador\/tyrese-campbell-172240\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tyrese Campbell<\/a>, but the striker\u2019s placed effort drifted just wide of the post.<\/p>\n<p>At the other end, the R\u2019s responded with a brief spell of pressure. Jimmy Dunne\u2019s side threatened twice in quick succession, but Tanganga was perfectly positioned to head clear Morgan\u2019s looping effort before Varane fired over from distance moments later.<\/p>\n<p>United\u2019s second goal arrived on 33 minutes and was a moment of real quality. Peck, influential throughout the first half, slipped a neat pass into Campbell, who took aim from outside the box and lashed a superb strike beyond the goalkeeper to double the advantage.<\/p>\n<p>Second Half<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Imagem do artigo:Queens Park Rangers 0-2 Sheffield United: Blades Comfortably Pass QPR Test\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"186.66666666666666\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/transform.jpeg\" width=\"280\" class=\"ImageWithSets_of-image__img__pezo7 ImageWrapper_media-container__image__Rd2_F\" importance=\"low\"\/><\/p>\n<p>LONDON, ENGLAND \u2013 FEBRUARY 28: <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/jogador\/sydie-peck-520413\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sydie Peck<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/time\/sheffield-united-583\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sheffield United<\/a> celebrates at full-time following the Sky Bet Championship match between Queens Park Rangers and <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/time\/sheffield-united-583\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sheffield United<\/a> at Loftus Road on February 28, 2026 in London, England. (Photo by Jasper Wax\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p>The hosts emerged for the second half with renewed energy following a couple of changes at the interval and began to apply pressure. Hoever was forced into a timely clearance behind for a corner as United weathered the early push. Chris Wilder responded with a double change of his own, introducing <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/jogador\/gustavo-hamer-188675\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gustavo Hamer<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/pt-br\/jogador\/andre-brooks-495374\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Andre Brooks<\/a> in place of Campbell and Chong to inject fresh legs into the contest.<\/p>\n<p>United looked to seal the points on the counter and carved out a promising opportunity, only for Brooks to fire over from a dangerous position. That miss briefly kept the home side interested, and the Blades survived two scares in quick succession. First, Smyth beat Adam Davies to a long ball but failed to convert, and from the resulting corner Kone saw his header ruled out for offside, with Smyth adjudged to have obstructed the United stopper.<\/p>\n<p>As the clock ticked in United\u2019s favour, the Blades continued to threaten on the break. Peck nearly added a third goal to cap an impressive personal performance, but his effort was well saved by Walsh as United sought to put the icing on the cake.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"PublisherImprintLink_container__RL6Zd title-7-medium\" href=\"https:\/\/sheffunitedway.co.uk\/about\/\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent\"  src=\"https:\/\/image-service.onefootball.com\/transform?w=48&amp;dpr=2&amp;image=https:\/\/images.onefootball.com\/cw\/icons\/info-light.svg\"\/>Saiba mais sobre o ve\u00edculo<\/a>Compartilhar artigo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sheffield United breezed past the challenge of Queens Park Rangers with a 2-0 victory in West London on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":148975,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[9,24,63,122,124,123],"class_list":["post-148974","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148974","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=148974"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148974\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/148975"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148974"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=148974"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=148974"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
