Reading FC: Gomes disappointed following opening defeat

Available for over a year

New Royals manager Jose Gomes was hoping for better in his side's 1-0 loss at Millwall. Reading also had two players sent off in the Boxing Day defeat. "It was a very difficult match," Gomes told BBC Radio Berkshire's Tim Dellor. "The spirit of my players, they were really brave, they showed a really strong attitude. "Even with ten players, for a long period of time, we controlled the game." And Gomes says he's learnt a lot about the Championship already. "This game has showed us the way and the best decisions that we must take for the future."
