Manchester City 0-2 Reading

Relegation fighters Reading increase their hopes of beating the drop with a 2-0 Barclays Premier League win over Manchester City at the Madejski Stadium.

A strike after first half from Shane Long and a late goal from substitute Dave Kitson was enough for a second successive win by the Royals to move out of the last three.

Machester City lost captain Richard Dunne due to a leg injury, which needed stitches.

Reading made a good start. John Oster moved into the right side of the penalty area, but his pass across the face of goal was just too far ahead of Kevin Doyle.

After 10 minutes, a free-kick from the left channel was dropped into the Machester City box - but captain Dunne was on hand to boot the ball clear.
