Reading v Sheffield Wednesday 01.11.05

Next to visit the Madejski in the Championship was the blue half of Sheffield. With only three wins so far this season, Sheffield Wednesday were looking for some away points to improve their league position.

The opening goal came directly from a save from Marcus Hahnemann, who immeadiately launched a counter attack via Kevin Doyle. Glen Whelan intercepted a cross from Doyle ahead of Dave Kitson, but only managed to slice the ball pass David Lucas in the Sheffield goal. 1-0 to the Royals after 38 minutes.

On 64 minutes Glen Little picked out Dave Kitson in the box who drove the ball low under the Sheffield keeper to make it 2-0. At full time Reading were still second in the Championship on 38 points, 3 points behind Sheffield Utd, but now significantly 9 points ahead of third place Watford.
