Nottingham Forest are now within two points of the Championship play-off zone after an excellent 4-0 home win over Reading.
The Reds showed little sign of fatigue in their third match in eight days as a second-half blitz pushed Steve Cooper's side closer to the top six.
Keinan Davis gave the hosts the lead inside the first 60 seconds at the City Ground as he drilled home Djed Spence's pass, but the Reds' tempo was below-par for most of the first half and they entered the interval just 1-0 up.
