3. Fighting to the End
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uqKMDdfguw Reading's recent form stems from the never say die attitude that permeates the whole squad. On many occasions the team has pulled back a result after going behind in the match, and often score significant goals in the later minutes of matches. Adam Le Fondre (pictured) has impressed the Match of the Day pundits earning the title of 'Super Sub' and why not? He came of the bench against Chelsea to score two late goals to turn a certain win for Rafa Benetiz's side into a draw and another valuable point for the Royals. Overall Alfie (as Reading fans know him) has scored six times after coming on as a substitute, equalling the Premier League record. The squad as a whole share the same mentality and it was Jimmy Kebe who scored both Reading's goals as they beat Sunderland 2-1 with the second goal coming on 86 minutes.
