Kick-off Reading
1 Collision Cech drops to gather a ball in front of Hunt whose knee collides with the Chelsea keeper’s temple. He is stunned badly and is carried off on a stretcher.
5 Chelsea substitution After lengthy treatment for Cech, he is replaced by Cudicini.
16 Woodwork Reading centre-back Ingimarsson attempts to head clear Ferreira’s cross after the Chelsea right-back flies past Shorey on the right. The ball flicks off his head behind and onto the crossbar with Hahnemann stranded.
17 Chance Robben wriggles free but his angled drive from the left flies across goal and wide.
28 Abused Shevchenko manoeuvres away from Ingimarsson who trips him and is booked.
32 Woodwork Doyle turns sharply onto Hunt’s pass and wrong-foots the Chelsea defence but his 10-yard shot rebounds off the post to safety.
35 Reading substitution Skipper Murty’s hamstring, a concern before the game, doesn’t hold up and he is replaced by Bikey.
40 Chance Drogba is given a difficult angle by Robben’s pass after Reading make a hash of a throw-out by Hahnemann and the Dutchman nips in. The shot rebounds off the keeper.
43 Booked Mikel for a careless trip on Hunt in the centre of the park.
44 Abused Lampard is illegally halted on the edge of the area by Sonko who is carded.
45 GOAL Lampard’s low free-kick ricochets off Sonko and onto Ingimarsson for the final touch and an own goal. The player who earlier hit his own crossbar wasn’t to be denied twice!
Stoppage time 5 mins.
Half-time Reading 0 Chelsea 1
Second-half.
Kick-off Chelsea
51 Booked Terry for dissent.
61 Sent-off Mikel is given a second yellow, showing his naivety with another indisciplined foul. This time he tugs back Sonko.
62 Reading substitution Little for Seol.
62 Chelsea substitution J Cole for Shevchenko. Chelsea go to 4-3-2.
71 Escape Sidwell shoots a fraction wide from the edge of the area.
72 Reading substitution Long for Lita.
76 Abused Drogba is felld from behind by Bikey who is booked.
81 Chelsea substitution Kalou for Robben.
82 Sent-off Bikey goes for his second yellow after a very minor tug at Drogba’s shorts.
90+1 Collision Cudicini is flattened by Sonko in a goal mouth scramble. The ball is hacked off the goal-line by Drogba but a free-kick has been whistled for anyway. Cudicini can’t continue with what appears another knock to the head so Chelsea lose a second keeper. Terry dons Hilario’s shirt and gloves and goes between the posts for the final seconds. Drogba takes over at centre-back.
90+10 Dispute: An argument followed by pushing erupts between the two benches after the ball goes out of play there. Chelsea fitness coach Rui Faria and a Reading member of staff are sent to the stands.
Stoppage time 12 mins.
Unused subs Reading: Stack, Gunnarsson. Chelsea: Carvalho, Wright-Phillips.
Shots on target Reading 0 Chelsea 4
