Match Recap

Jamie Reid's double sealed a brutal afternoon for Peterborough, who were taken apart 5-0 by Reading in the FA Cup. Daniel Kyerewaa got the rout started in the 26th minute, and Jack Marriott doubled the lead eight minutes later before Charlie Savage added a third right at the end of the first half, leaving Peterborough with nothing to build on after the break. Reid then put the result beyond any doubt with goals in the 72nd and 76th minutes, turning a comfortable lead into a full-blown demolition. Five goals, one team doing all the scoring, and a Peterborough side that never looked like getting a foothold in their own FA Cup tie. For Reading, it's the kind of scoreline that makes a statement well beyond this round. Watch how Reid's second goal, in the 76th minute, finished off a performance that Peterborough will want to forget fast.
