- 8' It’s gonna be a card for Peter Kioso.
- 13' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 18' It looks surprising Reading FC does not make any changes. Hector Matthew Kyprianou has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 22' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Femi Azeez on 22 minutes.

- 43' What a moment for Ephron Mason-Clark! That strike on 43 puts his side firmly in control.
- 48' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
