The first team won Gary McCann's testimonial match tonight, beating a young QPR side 4-3 at Earlsmead.

In a thoroughly entertaining game, it was Andre Da Costa who struck first to give the Greens the lead, before Axel Prohouly equalised on the half hour mark.

Nicu Hamailnen put the R's ahead on 51 minutes, but very soon afterwards Mahrez Bettache restored parity. Sam Murphy put the Greens ahead in the 68th minute, only for Olamidhe Shopipo to equalise for the visitors, but Elliott Brathwaite ensured it was a night to remember for Gary McCann as he scored the winner five minutes from time.
