Reading earned an impressive 2-1 victory over in-form Peterborough United courtesy of two goals from Harvey Knibbs.

A fourth goal in two matches, the former Cambridge United favourite enjoyed netting against his former Cambridgeshire rivals, earning a second away win of the season in the process.

Take a look below at our ratings.

Joel Pereira, 7: El Gato made some crucial saves throughout, staying alert and brave to consistently dive at the feet of the likes of Ricky Jade-Jones and Kwame Poku. The Portuguese stopper continues to win the Royals points.

Michael Craig, 7: Won possession plenty of times by stepping up high and loved to get forward, delivering some smart crosses which went begging. Was kept busy throughout as Posh loved to attack with the wings. 

Tyler Bindon, 7: The defender had hardly had time to reacclimatise after impressing in New Zealand before returning to the pitch in blue and white. Less noticeable than previous weeks but still made one or two big blocks. Wise beyond his years.

Amadou Mbengue, 6: Not the fan favourites best showing, sucked in by the forwards often and gave away lots of silly fouls. Eventually picked up a yellow card- signalling a suspension- and he limped off injured.

Jeriel Dorsett, 7: Another impressive performance from the full-back, keeping top scorer Kwame Poku relatively quiet during a difficult afternoon. Quickly becoming one of the best performers of the campaign.

Lewis Wing, 7: Made some big tackles defensively and played some vital passes offensively, including a smart free-kick to set up the opening goal. Continues to make the team tick and allow his midfield partners to thrive.

Ben Elliott, 6: A quieter afternoon than some in recent weeks but still showed flashes, especially on the half-turn. Almost glides across the pitch with the ball at his feet.

Charlie Savage, 8: Perhaps his strongest showing for the club, Savage was absolutely everywhere. Threaded a perfect ball for Knibbs' second and hit the crossbar himself in the second half. A performance which needs to be the benchmark.

Chem Campbell, 7: Kept the defenders on his toes throughout and a good back-up performance to his strong showing in Stevenage. Finding his feet and his consistency in the team.

Sam Smith, 7: A great start back after injury. Should have scored at least once but kept the defenders occupied and held the ball up expertly well. Reading are a better team with Smith in the side.

Harvey Knibbs, 7: Took his goals well and ran the defence ragged. After 14 goals last season, the forward could better it this campaign.

 

Substitutes

Abraham Kanu, 7: As cameos go, the teenager didn't put a foot wrong. Coming into a high-pressure environment, the defender put in some big tackles and looked composed in possession.

Jayden Wareham, 7: Ran the defenders well and could have both scored and assisted in his 15-minute showing.
