  • 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.
