Match Info

Reading FC completed a league double over Wigan Athletic with a 2-1 away victory at the DW Stadium on February 11, 2026. This result in English Football League One was a significant boost for Reading's late-season form and a blow to Wigan's own ambitions. Reading took an early lead against the run of play, capitalizing on a defensive error to slot home. Wigan responded strongly and equalized before halftime with a powerful strike from the edge of the area. The second half was an end-to-end affair, but it was Reading who found the winner with twenty minutes remaining, a composed finish following a swift counter-attack. Wigan pushed for a second equalizer but could not find a way past a determined Reading defense. The three points moved Reading into a strong position in the table, while Wigan's playoff hopes took a hit. The Reading manager praised his team's character and clinical edge in a tough away fixture.
