5 things we learned from Reading v Leeds United

Missed chances to haunt both sides

Both teams had chances during the game, and it looked like Reading’s would come back to haunt them the longer the game was 1-0.

Beerens had two great opportunities to grab that all-important second goal, firstly firing over from the edge of the box, before finding himself with just Green to beat, only to fail to force the keeper into a save.

And Leeds will also look back on Kyle Bartley’s header early in the proceedings, with the centre-back profiting from Al-Habsi’s missed punch but only heading into the side-netting.

Ultimately, Reading held on to secure the win, but it certainly could have been a lot more, and thus a slightly easier final 20 minutes for the hosts.
