Ehibhatiomhan strikes off the bench as Reading edge Luton in five-goal thriller

· Match Report

Luton's League One play-off push suffered a setback as they fell to a 3-2 defeat at struggling Reading. The Hatters fought back from two goals down to level at 2-2 late on, only for substitute Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan to snatch a 78th-minute winner.

The result ended Luton's four-match unbeaten league run, capping a contest that swung sharply in its closing stages after Reading had twice held the advantage.

Royals seize control

Town started the stronger, with Cohen Bramall driving wide after finding space, but Reading soon found themselves ahead. Hatters goalkeeper Josh Keeley clumsily felled Daniel Kyerewaa following a swift home break, and Lewis Wing coolly converted from the spot for his sixth goal of the season in the eighth minute.
