Reading 3-2 West Brom (aet) :D :D :D

A hat-trick from Leroy Lita saw Reading complete a fantastic comeback
against Premiership outfit West Brom as they sealed victory after extra-time.

Lita got booked for removing his shirt
after scoring the winner

The Baggies were fortunate to be 2-0 up at half-time with a brace from
Richard Chaplow on 9 and 31 minutes.
Lita gave Reading a lifeline just after the break when he pulled a goal
back on 51 minutes.
John Oster’s right-hand cross was blocked into the path of Lita who
showed quick feet to swivel and confidently fire a low effort home to put
the tie back in the melting pot.
Reading continued to take the game to their Premiership opponents and
only some last-ditch defending from Wallwork denied Shane Long a
chance on goal.
Steve Sidwell then went close with a long-range effort before Lita put
Reading back on level terms with a fantastic solo effort on 65 minutes.
Lita scored his second of the night with a perfectly-weighted lob from 20
yards sailed over Chris Kirkland.
Reading continued to bombard the visitors’ box with crosses but they
were unable to conjure up a winner in normal time.
However, it did not take long for Steve Coppell’s men to take the lead for
the first time in the match when man-of-the-moment Lita completed his
hat-trick 3 minutes into extra-time.
Harper surged into the box only to mis-kick his shot but Lita was on hand
to slot the loose ball home from 10 yards to complete a super fightback.
West Brom had no answers against their high-flying opponents and never
looked like getting themselves back in the tie.
Reading will now face Birmingham in the fourth round after the Blues saw
off Torquay 2-0 in their replay at St Andrews on Tuesday night.
