Reading delivered a commanding performance at home, dismantling Wigan Athletic with a clinical display that saw them race to a 2-0 lead inside 19 minutes. Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan was the star of the show, opening the scoring with a well-taken finish in the 9th minute before benefiting from Will Aimson's unfortunate own goal just ten minutes later. Wigan's triple substitution at half-time signaled their desperation to turn the tide, but Ehibhatiomhan put the result beyond doubt with his second goal just after the hour mark. This emphatic victory will boost Reading's League One campaign significantly, while Wigan's defensive frailties were brutally exposed in what became a damage limitation exercise.
How entertaining was this match?
