Here are our player ratings from Reading's 2-1 win at home to Preston North End.
Rafael: 7/10
Had nothing to do all game until producing an incredible save from close range in stoppage time to keep the score at 2-1.
Yiadom: 7/10
Superb defensively and showed great energy to drive the team forward too.
Moore: 7/10
Proper captain’s performance. Commanded the backline brilliantly and didn’t let anything go by him.
Morrison: 7/10
Rock-solid at the back, won all of his duels and was unlucky to concede a penalty. It was a blatant handball but the ball came at him very quickly.
McIntyre: 8/10
Outstanding performance from the Scotland youth international who played in his more natural centre-back position.
Brilliant in the air and never afraid to go in for a tackle when necessary.
Rinomhota: 7/10
Always seemed to be in the right place at the right time to cut the ball out.
Laurent: 7/10
Sublime pressure to win the ball before firing a lovely cross towards Azeez for Royals’ opening goal.
Azeez: 8/10
Superb performance from the young forward. Looks to have the pace Royals have been lacking and displayed great movement too. Took his goal really well.
Swift: 8/10
Continued his superb start to the season. Always looked to make things happen and should have had several assists but for some poor finishing.
Took his goal really well.
Bristow: 7/10
Missed a golden chance to score his first senior goal in the first half but his overall performance was very promising. Certainly didn’t look out of place.
Joao: 6/10
Good strength and hold up play but should have opened his account for the season shortly after the restart.
SUBS
Puscas didn't feature for long enough for a fair ratings.
