Dexter Blackstock struck late on with his sixth of the season to earn QPR a deserved point against Blackpool.

Gary Taylor-Fletcher's stunning 25-yard strike into the top corner earned the visitors a slender half-time lead.

QPR pushed for an equaliser, with Dexter and Lee Cook both going close and Daniel Parejo claiming a penalty.

But substitute Akos Buzsaky saw a free-kick crash back off the crossbar and Blackstock was in the right place to head home the rebound.

QPR manager Iain Dowie:
"There's an obsession in this country with systems, but it's about the players out there.

"We just didn't get going enough. We could have been 2-0 up at half-time and then there would have been no talk about systems.

"It was an unsatisfactory result but I can't be unhappy with the way we played. I can't fault the desire."

Blackpool manager Simon Grayson:
"We were under pressure from set-pieces in the second half but the players dug in and defended for their lives at times.

"We'd have taken a point at the start of the game but when you get to where we were and concede a goal, it's always tough and the players are disappointed.

"I can't fault the players - we have to be delighted with this point."
