11.03.1989 | A sparkling first half performance ensured that Spurs Reserves had almost wrapped up the points by half-time on their visit to Reading.
When a Reading defender’s clearance hit one of his team-mates, the ball dropped loose in their penalty area and Ian Gilzean was first to react to shoot past the keeper. It was Gilzean who doubled his own and the team’s tally, following in David Howells’ volley that bounced down off the underside of the crossbar and heading home from close range. Tottenham moved the ball through Jason Cook, John Moncur, Gudni Bergsson and David Howells in a good passing move that created the chance for Paul Moran to finish clinically. A long ball gave Howells the chance to get behind the defence and lift the ball over the keeper who had come out to meet him making it 4-0 and although Reading pulled a goal back in the second half, it was 45 minutes that Spurs eased through.
