Reading FC manager Ruben Selles praised his side for being able to adapt as they hit two late goals to defeat Port Vale.
The Royals had to stay patient with their breakthrough coming in the 76th minute thanks toa stunner from Lewis Wing before Harvey Knibbs’ close range goal sealed the points.
“We spoke on Saturday and for me the result didn’t reflect the way we performed,” said Selles.
“I think today the result reflects the way we played and performed.
“It took us 15, 20 minutes to adjust things because it was Darren’s (Moore) second game and changed from the way he usually plays.
“We were prepared for a different scenario but after that we adjusted and at half-time, we fully adjusted. The second-half we dominated.”
Selles was full of praise for goalscorer Lewis Wing.
He continued: “Lewis (Wing) is a fantastic player and doing very well for the club, as are many others.
“He was in position to score the goal. We practised those and we know when he has the ball on the edge of the box he is a danger for the opponent.
“We stayed patient and built up. We had a couple of chances before that one and it is always a matter of breaking the chain and scoring the goal that gives them freedom to express themselves and open the game.
“When the game is open, we can be very dynamic against any team.
“My point is to always go and beat the opponent and get the three points against any opponent.
“Those three points are as big as three points would have been against Portsmouth. I prepared my team the same, to beat the opponent.
“I know the consequences are that they get one less win or less points which is good, but we need to focus on ourselves and the way we do things.
“We deserved the three points against Fleetwood, it was the last action that took the points, I think we deserved more from the Portsmouth game and
today we deserved the three points.
“That is what I am thinking about more than the table, relegation or the teams around us. It is about how we get better from today to the next day.”
