Full-time! it ends goalless at Loftus Road and QPR secure a valuable point against a Spurs side who will lose third place if Chelsea beat Stoke in their 15:00 kick-off. Thanks for joining me.
90+2'
Harry points at the corner flag. Who said he wasn't a tactical genius?
90+1'
Not too many leaving early here... a minute left for QPR to hold out as Spurs lump it in again...
90'
Just two minutes of added time will be played - QPR closing in on a hard-earned point.
89'
Taarabt looks for Mackie inside the box, but passer and passee were not on the same wavelength and the ball goes through to Lloris.
88'
Now SWP is down after taking on Dawson in a physical challenge and, unsurprisingly, losing. He'll be alright.
87'
Mbia is OK and will play on. Honestly, the way he reacted to that collision you'd think he's lost a limb...
86'
There's an offside against Mbia who races through and gets taken out by Lloris. The QPR man stays down and appears to be in some pain.

Great build-up from QPR as Taarabt plays SWP through... but he kicks the ground when attempting to shoot! Horrible from Wright-Phillips.
84'
Bale hits a dipping free-kick that bounces a yard wide of Julio Cesar's goal.
83'
Spurs win a free-kick 30 yards out and Bale will have a shot here...
81'
Bale gets booed again as he picks up the ball on the right and cheers ring out as his cross is blocked. Still Spurs labour.

Tottenham: Gylfi Sigurdsson on for Aaron Lennon.
79'
Bale is on the floor after a tangle.... that was neither a foul nor a dive (such a thing is possible) though the QPR fans predictably boo him.
78'
Alert from Lloris, who has had almost nothing to do today - the Frenchman races out of his box to intercept a Taarabt pass intended for Wright-Phillips.
77'
Bale exchanges passes with Dempsey then tries an ambitous flick that doesn't quite come off.
76'
Into the last 15 minutes, and still QPR hold firm. It hasn't made for a great game, but they have defended with great endeavour.
74'
Better from Taarabt, who sets Fabio away down the left... he plays the ball in front of goal but there's nobody to aim for in the box.
73'
Park tries a nifty Redondo/Berg-style backheel but doesn't achieve the same result.
