PICTURE GALLERY: Hat-trick heroics from Marriott put Reading FC back in play-off contention

A dramatic afternoon at the Select Car Leasing Stadium saw Reading claim a thrilling 3–2 victory over Wycombe Wanderers — with Jack Marriott the undisputed star of the show.

Marriott, continuing his outstanding scoring form this season, now sits as joint League One top scorer. He opened the scoring early, Wycombe equalised twice, but his decisive third goal secured all three points for the Royals.

The victory lifts Reading just outside the play-off places, keeping their promotion hopes alive. This gallery captures the key moments: goals, celebrations, and Marriott’s hat-trick heroics under the afternoon sun.

Leam Richardson’s side sit in 7th position, just three points outside of the top six.

They host fellow play-off hopefuls Bolton Wanderers, who are in 3rd, on Tuesday before a trip to League One’s bottom side, Port Vale, at the weekend.
