The international break is a distant memory and we are so very back.

Whether we can say the same about West Ham remains to be seen.

If they could play in the first half like they have tended to do in the final half-hour they'd surely have daylight at the top of the table already, as it is they could find themselves four points adrift and as low as fourth by Saturday.

QPR look like they might just stick around in this play-off race themselves, so long as they can get a handle on their injury crisis.

Swansea, Wolves and Middlesbrough will have enjoyed that.

The Swans have the chance to extend their lead at the top tomorrow afternoon, but boy is this is wonderfully tight table.

West Ham boss Nuno Espirito Santo told Sky Sports: "We started well but the first half was not good, the second half was better, we had chances to win the game.

"We expect much more, we have the quality to do much better."

On the penalty against Tomas Soucek: "Unfortunately the ref didn't get it right in the moment, there's not much more to say about that."

On Jarrod Bowen's penalty miss: "Credit to the keeper, it was two incredible saves."

On QPR: "QPR are a good side, well organised, good players, but everyone who saw the game will think there was one team who deserved to win the game.

"Two points got away, let's try to perform better and get a better result."

You could throw a cap over the Hammers outfield players in this graphic of their average positions.

They began with a 4-4-2 formation but, given how much of the ball they had, and how deep QPR were prepared to drop, they ended up more like a 0-10-0, with both wide midfielders playing further forward than the strikers.

QPR head coach Julien Stephan told Sky Sports: "We did an outstanding first half, very brave, very strong organisation defensively.

"The second half we had more difficult managing the ball, we defended a lot, too much for me. We didn't create a lot second half and had to deal with some special situations.

"Boy Kemper did a great job but hadn't played for two months and trained only one week. I needed to take the decision to take him off and unfortunately we conceded right after."

He praised the spirit and personality of his side to cling on to a point, adding: "We needed to just survive. With the quality (West Ham) have, when we have to stay low like this, you can concede something. Pierce saved the point with an amazing double save.

"I think the players deserve the point, it's a great one, even more with our situation, the players gave everything for the shirt and I am very proud of what they did."

After conceding a controversial penalty on his first appearance since being injured at the World Cup in June, West Ham midfielder Tomas Soucek told Sky Sports: "It's tough to take, I am disappointed.

"I was so happy I won the challenge, from my perspective it's a massive mistake.

"I saw it (afterwards) inside and it's even worse than I thought, but I can't change that.

"I asked to speak to (the referee) but he wouldn't speak - after the game he told me he was wrong."

Soucek added: "I am disappointed because it was a big game for myself and for the team even more, and it's tough to take."

What a display from Pierce Charles.

21-years-old. The future of goalkeeping. Surely he won't be in the Championship beyond this season?

Oh, and he can ping it too... look!

The Manchester City goalkeeper is still only 21. It was an outstanding double save from Jarrod Bowen late on to earn his side a point.

QPR

QPR keeper Pierce Charles, who is on loan from Manchester City, told Sky Sports of his match-saving heroics: "I's just a blur. I work on it every day and it paid off at the end of the day and I'm just happy to get the point."

Charles kept four straight clean sheets for Northern Ireland during the international break, and saved a penalty from PSG and Georgia's Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

He added: "I'm on a bit of a roll at the minute but it can change at any point so I have to stay focused."

A draw was fair. For QPR, the manager will have to answer questions about the changes.

They looked likely to score the next goal but that all changed when he made those changes.

What a dramatic last quarter of the game. Queens Park Rangers remain unbeaten away from home.

Julien Stephan looks delighted with that result.

It's all over. A breathless game finishes all-square.

That's thanks largely to the heroics of Pierce Charles who made an extraordinary double save to keep out Jarrod Bowen's last-gasp penalty and the rebound too.

QPR took a deserved lead into half-time after Nicolas Madsen coolly slotted a penalty which was harshly awarded against Tomas Soucek, who got the hook at the break on his first appearance since the World Cup.

West Ham didn't come to life until the final half-hour, inspired by Bowen who lashed home at the second attempt.

The script look written when he stepped up in added time after Pablo was fouled but Charles made the save to prevent the Hammers going top of the table.

Lewis Orford has a sight of goal but his effort cannons behind off a claret and blue shirt and it's a goal kick.

That might do it.

West Ham trying to get it forward as the seconds tick down but Arne Engels' cross his headed away.

We're into the third of FOUR added minutes, by the way.

All very flat in the London Stadium after the script was torn up by Pierce Charles just now.

The penalty save was stunning but with the rebound he managed to fly up to the top hand corner!
