'It was a perfect example of our season' Reading boss on Blackpool win
|
Reading came from behind to beat Blackpool 3-2 on the final day of the League One season. Take a look at reaction from Ruben Selles below. Ruben on the win "We had the same against Burton, [off for] the first five or 10 minutes and I don’t like that. We need to correct that and how we manage games will be a key point. We managed a lot of moments like that in the season and we came back, scored before half-time, and came back stronger. Mamadi made a good impact today. It was a perfect example of our season.
