Reading 2-1 Birmingham

Mar 22, 2008

Two Andre Bikey headers gave Reading three vital points and deepened Birmingham’s relegation fears.

The hosts almost took the lead when Stephen Hunt’s drive hit the bar, but they went ahead when Bikey glanced in John Oster’s free-kick on 31 minutes.

After the break, Mikael Forssell did superbly to cross low into the box for Mauro Zarate to slot in an equaliser.

But Reading snatched a crucial victory when Bikey nodded into the bottom corner from Nicky Shorey’s free-kick.
