Our under-18s held on for a hard-fought 1-0 win at Reading as they chalked up their second league win of the season.
Alfie Matthews scored the game's only goal with a smart header from a delightful delivery from captain Ben Cottrell.
We threatened twice early on, first with Kido Taylor-Hart splitting the defence for Joel Lopez, only for the Spanish full back to see his low cross not receive the finishing touch it deserved.
Then Miguel Azeez went close, swapping passes with Matthews twice before sending a powerful effort clear of the crossbar.
The goal came not long after, with Cottrell cutting inside from the right flank before delivering a splendid cross for Matthews to nod into the Reading net.
