Redknapp upset with QPR players for Cup defeat

QPR boss Harry Redknapp was upset with his players in defeat to Capital One Cup opponents Burton Albion.

Redknapp made nine changes for the second-round tie and paid the price as Adam McGurk secured a 1-0 win for the underdogs with a superb 77th-minute free-kick at the Pirelli Stadium.

He said: "It was a poor performance. We gave the lads who haven't been playing an opportunity to show what they can do, and they showed me what they can do - and it wasn't an awful lot.

"We had chances in the first half and I thought we could have gone on to win the game but we faded in the second half and I was disappointed."
