QPR victory over Leicester broke Premier League record for shots at goal

QPR's victory over Leicester City produced a Premier League record for number of shots at goal.

The Rs' 3-2 win featured a remarkable 52 shots at goal, a record total since Opta began recording that particular statistic in 2006.

The previous Premier League high was 50, during a match between Manchester United and Sunderland on April 14, 2006.

Incredibly, that match at Old Trafford ended goalless as United's slim hopes of catching Chelsea in the title race were ended.
