Events

Match Events

  • 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Reading FC to score. At the same time, Leyton Orient FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
  • 5' Jordan Graham needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 9' The referee has no hesitation. Tom James is booked for Leyton Orient FC — card on 9.
  • 14' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Reading FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 19' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 19 minutes.
  • 24' Leyton Orient FC is showing some good football. However, Leyton Orient FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 27' Against the run of play, Charlie Kelman has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 32' Supporters expect more eagerness from Sam Smith, as he is very good at scoring at Select Car Leasing Stadium with 13 goals in the last 13 games.
  • 37' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 42' Ethan Galbraith picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 45' Zach Hemming is having his name booked by the referee on 45.
  • 48' Daniel Happe picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 53' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 58' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jack Simpson suffering a number of foals already.
  • 62' Chem Campbell makes way for Adrian Akande at the 62 minute mark. A tactical switch from Reading FC.
  • 65' Oliver O'Neill has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 65.

  • 75' The whistle greets Oliver O'Neill as he departs to be replaced by Jordan Graham.
  • 80' 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.
  • 83' The crowd applauds Michael Craig as he leaves the pitch. Kelvin Abrefa steps in for Reading FC.
  • 88' Andre Garcia has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jeriel Dorsett on 88 minute.
  • 90' Leyton Orient FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 90.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Reading FC.
