Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Leeds United FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 10' Reading FC is showing some good football. However, Reading FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' Jamie Shackleton has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 20' It’s high time Marcelo Bielsa made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 25' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 30' 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.
- 35' Leeds United AFC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Helder Costa is hanging Tyler Roberts on the field on 35 minute.
- 40' Leeds United AFC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 40.
- 44' Omar Richards is having his name booked by the referee on 44.
- 49' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Reading FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 54' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 59' Reading FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 59.
- 64' It looks surprising Reading FC does not make any changes. Michael Morrison has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 66' Another substitution for Leeds United AFC to replace Mateusz Klich by Ezgjan Alioski on 66 minute.
- 70' Time for substitution for Reading FC. George Puscas is replaced by Lucas Boye.
- 75' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 75 minutes.
- 80' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Leeds United FC that had 358 games and scored 532 goals.
- 85' It looks like no one’s ball. Reading FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 86' Another substitution for Reading FC to replace Yakou Meite by Daniel Loader on 86 minute.
- 87' Goal! Jack Harrison scores his 43 goal in 358 matches.
- 90' The whistle greets Jack Harrison as he departs to be replaced by Jamie Shackleton.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Reading FC.
