LIVE: READING v PETERBOROUGH UNITED: Three second half goals from Reading sees off Posh

What a disappointment.

Just the matter of playing out time now, Posh look like they’re still trying but too little too late.

Dele-Bashiru given the freedom of the stadium on the edge of the box, no pressure on him. He takes his time to line up his shot, Taylor gives to block it, it hits him and ricochets in. Pym rooted to the spot.

game over

Posh need some inspiration here, a lot of the ball but not a lot of ideas. Reading sitting deep

Butler off, Tomlinson on

Posh trying to build some momentum and Reading starting to retreat. Butler puts in a great ball right onto the head of JCH, he has time to ready himself but still plants the header well wide.

Szmodics does come on, a frustrating blow.

Marriott has pulled his hamstring. Down on the far side after pulling up, presumably Szmodics will come on.

Posh have got their tails up now. A couple of balls are flung into the box from Ward and Butler and Southwood is far from convincing. Thompson stayed up and nearly managed to flick goalwards. If only Posh hadn’t had that mad few minutes. Still, another goal is there.

Ward dinks a ball over to the backpost, there is Thompson getting above his man to head down and into the net. We can’t see a replay, it seems the big screen only shows home goals.

Posh have looked well in this game all night, Reading have hardly threatened, Posh too it must be said but out of nothing, a poor bit of play from JCH and a defensive switch off sees Posh 2-0 down against one of the poorer sides they will paly all season.

Free-kick on the right of the box, Dembele fouled by Yiadom. ward to take.

Absolutely dreadful, two goals in three minutes conceded again. Just like Saturday, when it happened twice. Posh are lucky it wasn't three when the defence parted like the Red Sea and allowed Puscas to shoot just inside the box, his shot went just over when he should have done better. All Reading now.

Swift fires across the face of the goal. Hoilett lets it run and it falls to Dele-Bashiru. Ward doesn’t get tight and he’s allowed to tack a touch, pick his spot and bury it in the bottom right corner.
