Reading FC: Al-Habsi pleased with tight, focussed start

Available for over a year

The Royals goalkeeper is happy to walk away from semi-final first leg with no deficit. Ali Al-Habsi's goal was only breached once during the game, with Jordan Obita's strike ensuring Fulham and Reading FC go in level to the second leg on Tuesday evening. "We started really really well," he told BBC Radio Berkshire's Tim Dellor. "We came here in the league, and we had a heavy result. "Today we switched ourselves on from the first...we came here to do a good job of the game." And Al-Habsi wants the Reading squad to be confident going into the return leg. "I think we believe we are the better team, we are third in the table. "Don't forget, last time at home we won one nil, and we need to just do the same job now."
