Leeds loan round-up as Tyler Roberts bags a brace in dramatic QPR comeback

Leeds United loanee Tyler Roberts scored twice as Queens Park Rangers came from two goals behind to draw 2-2 against Reading at the Madejski Stadium.

Form and fitness has largely eluded Roberts at Loftus Road, but the Wales international doubled his tally of one goal in 15 games with two second half goals to inspire QPR to a dramatic comeback.

Leo Hjelde started on his Rotherham United debut and played 89 minutes in the Millers' emphatic 4-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers. Elsewhere, Stuart McKinstry extended his tally to four goals for the season for Motherwell, although Ross County left it late to snatch a 1-1 draw at Fir Park.

Jamie Shackleton played just seven minutes from the bench in Millwall's 1-0 defeat at Middlesbrough, while Charlie Cresswell didn't feature for the Lions for the fifth league game in a row.

Helder Costa started for Al-Ittihad as they came from behind to win 2-1 against Al-Batin and move to within two points of Saudi Pro League leaders Al-Nassr.

Mateusz Bogusz scored his first goal for UD Ibiza, but saw his opener cancelled out by goals from Las Palmas duo Sandro Ramirez and Jonathan Viera. UD Ibiza suffered a third league defeat on the bounce and sit at the foot of the table in the Spanish second-tier with just 16 points from 23 games.

Ian Poveda was unable to build on his impressive display in Blackpool's 4-1 victory over Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup third round after picking up a groin problem. In his absence, Blackpool lost 2-0 against Watford at Vicarage Road and plummeted into 23rd place in the Championship.

Lewis Bate played the full 90 minutes as Oxford United kept their faint play-off hopes alive with a 2-1 win at Fleetwood Town. The U's have collected two victories from their last three games, and moved to within eight points of the top six.

Alfie McCalmont was introduced from the bench three minutes from time to make his debut for Carlisle United in a 2-0 victory over Newport County.

Jack Jenkins continues to struggle for game time at Salford City, after he was left of the squad for the fifth straight game in their 2-0 triumph over Sutton United.
