Lack of composure 'cost us the game,' Nathan Jones says

LUTON manager Nathan Jones acknowledged a clear lack of clinical finishing in his side’s 2-0 defeat at QPR last night, but said his defence must also shoulder the blame for letting the hosts off too easily.

The Hatters had the lion’s share of shots and attacking initiative on the night, but an early goal from Chris Willock – latching on to Ilias Chair’s clearance from a corner and dinking it over keeper Simon Sluga – followed by a simple header for Charlie Austin on 55 minutes ensured that QPR could see off the final stages in relative comfort.
