Division Two Round-Up

Queens Park Rangers failed to significantly close the gap on Plymouth Argyle at the top of the table after being held 3-3 by Barnsley, with The Pilgrims playing Bristol City on Tuesday.

The R's had led late on 2-1 in Yorkshire, however the home side responded with two goals of their own before Paul Furlong rescued a last-gasp point with the last kick of the game.

Anthony Kay's own goal brought The R's level after Craig Ireland opened the scoring, however Furlong fired the visitors ahead after 74 minutes.

The goals looked like securing all three points, but Daniel Nardiello and David Murphy turned the game around before Furlong netted his second in a thrilling six-goal draw.

Brighton missed the opportunity to cement their play-off hopes after being held by Rushden & Diamonds in a goalless clash.
