| Abbey went into a commanding lead in the first half of this tough local derby. Reading made many fine tackles
but the windy conditions favoured Abbey |
| The second half was very different with Reading camped in the Abbey half with Abbey under extreme pressure.
Reading pressure finally paid off with James Few scoring a glorious try and Luke Nichols converting. |
| Reading then went up a gear again with James just missing out on a second try and Cameron Leigh just losing
control of the ball before the try line and Abbey making some good defensive tackles. |
| Reading should take good heart and be proud of the performance in this match that was 100% improvement
in tackling, rucking and commitment.
