Queens Park Rangers beat Swansea City 5-0 at Loftus Road, after which Swansea City head coach Vitor Matos said his side must "listen to this performance".

How the goals came

Richard Kone scored a hat-trick inside the first 15 minutes, while Jimmy Dunne scored two set-piece goals.

Matos on the defeat

Matos said: "The performance does not erase what we have done, but we need to listen to this game, we need to listen to this performance and understand what we need to do much better."

He added: "Queens Park Rangers started with a lot of energy, we lacked concentration and organisation in moments."

Matos also said: "They were really clinical in their finishing and that didn't give us the confidence we need. In the end it's my responsibility."

He said: "It's up to me to put the team on the pitch, to improve the team. And that's what we need to do now – to understand, to analyse and improve again."

League position

Swansea City remain in the Championship's automatic promotion places despite the defeat.

Injuries and squad news

Moussa Yeo was missing at QPR after suffering a hamstring problem during the defeat by West Ham United.

Matos said: "Of course losing Moussa is not the best for us, but we have a strong squad and we will find a way to cover his absence."

He said Moussa Yeo will be sidelined for between two and three weeks. Ronald was ruled out for up to eight weeks with a hamstring injury.

Jeremy Monga was part of Swansea's matchday squad on Saturday for the first time since joining on loan from Manchester City, but did not get on the pitch.
