    1-0 to Pompey at half time. Sounds like a good match so far.

    According to BBC Sport, we have had 59% possession in the first half.

    Reading bring Paul McShane on for Blackman, and Alan Tshibola on for Williams.

    Final whistle, and it's 2-1 to Reading. What a match. We had 58% possession, and deserved better.

    Still, onwards and upwards, back to the League again on Saturday. Well played lads.

    Incredible crowd for a wet Tuesday night.

    Good to see James Dunne getting game time. The difference between Paul Cook and Andy Awford, he doesn't leave any players out in the cold.

    Good win for Reading in the end, and saves face :D

    All comments added to The News match report are positive and praise the Pompey effort - which is unusual for a defeat!

    Apparently played attractive football and matched the championship side in everything except the score line.

    All in all very positive..

    If we had got through last night, we would have been playing either Everton or Barnsley at Fratton Park in the 3rd round.
