But wait !!! Sheff Wed 1 Reading 2

Kevin Doyle and Shane Long finally ended Reading’s depressing goal drought as Steve Coppell’s men returned to winning ways last night.

Up until Doyle popped up with his 18th goal of the season on 56 minutes, no Royals player had managed to find the net in nearly 10 hours of action.

Then with nine minutes to go, fellow Irishman Long added a second to seal victory.
