1-1

Not there so can’t comment on the goal but I will still go with Harris out. Was not surprised at all when 1-1 flew up on my phone. Couldn’t stay in front more than 3 minutes

Oh, what a soft goal to give away after going in front. Cardiff’s defence are completely undone by a diagonal ball from Charlie Adam,

Not there so can’t comment

If only

Glatzel

Glatzel wide! Awful work from the Reading defence gifts the ball straight to Glatzel from the kick-off. The German shoots from range but pulls it wide!

Our defence looking shaky once again

Double chance! Joe Ralls’ ball in is cleared and it falls to Vaulks, who strikes it sweetly on the half-volley from just outside the box, only for Sam Walker to parry away well. It Gavin Whyte picks it up on the right and hammers a ball across the face of goal, but Flint just cannot get a touch on it!

Sol Bamba looks to strike from 35 yards but Charlie Adam just catches him and the defender goes down. He looks in a lot of pain.

Cardiff going for it

Don’t tell me Charlie Adam is still running things against us like years ago?

As for Glatzel shooting wide... was it a good chance?

Bamba is ok

Yes but thats because he is up against our defence

Good work from Bennett on the left and he nips it past Meite to earn a free-kick on the touchline.

Just saw a replay of the Reading goal and if he was well offside.

Their goal clearly offside.

Free-kick to Cardiff once again. Josh Murphy clips it in, but it’s cleared. City rebuild down the left and Murphy earns a corner.

More lax defending from Reading almost proves costly as it falls to Glatzel. He takes it around Walker but the angle is too tight and he side-foots it into the side-netting to ironic cheers from the home fans.

Cardiff looking the better side

What a save! Yakou Meite is through but Smithies comes out and smothers the danger!

End to end

Callum Paterson fires wide from distance!

What were Cardiff fans singing to get a warning from the Reading stadium announcer?

Dunno if i misheard but warning on the tannoy of racist/homophobic chants from the cardiff fans!

What's that about?

Surely it can’t be about sheep shagging bastards about ourselves

Embarrassing from Reading if it is!

Why did Ralls go of? Hope he isnt badly injured
