Reading City U18’s manager and director of football at John Madejski Academy, said: “To reach the 1st round proper for the second time in three years is fantastic.

“As a non-league side you are just trying to get as far as you can and with pro clubs coming in at this stage it is naturally our aim at the start of the competition, our cup final you might say.

“Both sides are in good form coming into the game so it promises to be a strong matchup.

“It is a special atmosphere and one that produces memories that the players and staff will remember for a long time.

“Either ourselves or Gosport can make more memories next week and who knows what the second round might bring.”

The match kicks-off at 19:30 and admission is £7 adults, £3 concessions and under 16s go free.

To say thank you to the hardworking personnel at the NHS for their efforts during the Covid-19 pandemic, Reading City also gives free entry to NHS Staff and their families with a valid NHS ID at the turnstiles.
