Time:90'- Nottingham Forest
- Reading
- The final whistle goes! Breathless stuff at the City Ground, what an incredible game of football - well done to Reading for coming out on top but you have to feel for Forest getting nothing out of that one.
90' The drama keeps coming - it's a penalty as Luke Chambers handles! But it's for Reading - yet Lee Camp saves Shane Long's effort to the bottom left corner. Can Forest keep a miracle comeback on?
90' It's another for Reading - and it's a horror for Forest with Luke Chambers having put one past his own keeper! What a way for an amazing match to finish!- 88' Lewis McGugan equalises from the spot for Forest! That's really put the cherry on the icing of this magnificent game - neither side deserved to walk away empty handed after an astonishing afternoon of entertainment.
- 62' Jimmy Kebe has put Reading back in front! Karacan's corner is whipped in and the midfielder picks up the ball and smashes home from six yards to put the Royals back in front!
- 54' Jem Karacan equalises for Reading! What a stunning match this is!
- 51' Rob Earnshaw breaks his seven-match goal drought to put Forest ahead! The chance emerged from a poor throw-out by Alex McCarthy, and Earnshaw made no mistake as he rifled his shot home.
- 38' Penalty to Forest - and Kris Boyd steps up to smash it home! The hosts will be relieved to have bagged an equaliser just before half-time - their play-off hopes would be hit badly by defeat today.
- 19' Magical free kick from Ian Harte! Reading go one ahead, and with their superb goal difference - second only to that of QPR - they could find themselves in third place in the league tonight if they carry on to win today.
2:41 Nottm Forest: Camp, Gunter, Chambers, Morgan, Lynch, McCleary, Moussi, Majewski, McGugan, Earnshaw, Boyd ///////// Reading: McCarthy, Griffin, Ingimarsson, Khizanishvili, Harte, Kebe, Leigertwood, Karacan, McAnuff, Long, Manset
