Events
Match Events

- 5' Reading FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 10' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Sam Field on 10 minutes.
- 15' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 20' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 25' A moment of madness from Pele on 25 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Reading FC will be frustrated.
- 30' Reading FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Charlton Athletic FC backline.
- 35' Reading FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 40' Andy Yiadom needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 45' Both keepers have barely been tested. Reading FC and Charlton Athletic FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.

- 71' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
