What the managers' thought
Both managers thought Reading did well and that United deserved to win a game
they dominated only in fits and starts....
Reading manager Steve Coppell said post match: "We put an awful lot into the
game and tested them to the end. But the quality of Wayne Rooney and
Cristiano Ronaldo proved too much.
"We had a real go at them and although it looks like a routine 2-0 victory, it
certainly wasn't that.
"We didn't want to sit back and we often feel our best defence is to attack and it
almost paid off today."
Fergie added: "We had a number of chances in last third but we started to worry
that we weren't going to get the goal.
"Credit to Reading who never stopped working and really made us work.
"It was a really open match. Our own attacking play wasn't at its best and more
care was needed up front. We scored at the right time and held on."
