[whipsmart13]

GET IN

1-1

Cisse with the goal!!!!!

Superb finish. 18 yds out left foot volley from a poor punch out from Robinson

[whipsmart13]

GET IN

1-1

Cisse with the goal!!!!!

corner by Reading on a lob by Hunt from the right wing.....close but no cigar

[whipsmart13]

After the goal, Reading has been putting the pressure on the Tater Tots...I think the more that we do to limit their touches on teh ball on our end, the better.

[whipsmart13]

dangerous cross in by the Tots at the 22nd minute...catch by Marcus

[whipsmart13]

excellent counter by Reading leads to a corner in the 26th minute. Convey finds Kits who threads the needle on the run to Doyle between two defenders on the break. However, the ball to Hunt is deflected out. Nothing comes from teh corner except Reading is still on that side of the half and keep the ball away from the Tots

Doyle ends the possession with a weak left footer

[whipsmart13]

Foul by the Tots on Convey just ouside the box...1 yard outside.....free kick coming up

[whipsmart13]

Convey, Hunt and Shorey back for the kick....Shorey sails it over

[whipsmart13]

Cisse's game has picked up after the goal. He was a little bit stand-offish at first, and his booking was undeserved.
Hes done a good job of getting with the passing and has done a good job of rotating the ball to the flanks.

[whipsmart13]

Tots on the attack the last few minutes...a very dangerous cross is played out. They are pressuring our flanks right now and we're having problems crossing midfield

[whipsmart13]

holy smokes...Keane misses a cross that should have made it 2-1 Tots...he was all alone in front of the goalk and Marcus was beaten....still 1-1

[whipsmart13]

Ht 1-1

[whipsmart13]

2nd half has started...both teams on the attack...a near miss for Kits in the 51st on a nice release leads to another corner

[whipsmart13]

GET IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2-1 on the corner from Shorey to Ivar's head..beats Robinson in the 52nd minute

[Neeto]

GOAL IVAR!!!!!
Spurs 1-2 Reading

[whipsmart13]

damn, damn damn...we shoul dhave just had another one but good sliding tackle by Robinson on Kits who was released on a ball through the crowd

[Neeto]

Kitson with a great chance and should have made it. Reading has been pouring on the pressure at the beginning of the second half.

[whipsmart13]

Kitson could have made it three on a through ball by Cisse. Should have taken it instead of trying to go around the keeper.
