It was in the early first half that Drogba scored his first goal against Coventry that really disappointed Chris Coleman. Drogba was very quick to realise the opportunity when a misjudged header of Ben Turner brought him head on with Scott Dann.

Reading got a shot in the arm when a suicide goal from Neill Collins in the very first minute sank Wolves’ boat, and put Reading within two points of the leader. The result of the match played at the Madejski Stadium on Tuesday night has really thrown the championship wide open, and with Birmingham also winning their match at home, the final lag of the championship has all the ingredients to make for a great 100 meter dash.
