Reading boss Veljko Paunovic said:
"The result is not what we wanted. We are unhappy about it. We played a very solid game and confronted and matched their team well throughout the match.
"In the past we have struggled against a direct approach unfortunately we conceded the penalty that changed the game. They blocked and defended very well.
"After we conceded, the reaction and the composure didn't crumble. We understood it was time to put more numbers in attack even before their goal.
"I see a group of people who are 100% committed to help the team secure the play-offs. One point is not what we wanted but it's something."
