Reading defender Tom McIntyre suggested that it was 'brilliant experience' to play against 'the best in the world' as the Royals lost 3-1 to Manchester United in the FA Cup on Saturday night.
United side progressed to the fifth round of the FA Cup with a comfortable 3-1 victory over the Championship side at Old Trafford. Brazilian duo Casemiro (2) and Fred were on target for Erik ten Hag's side as United recorded their 11th win in their last 13 matches.
The Reds are currently the only side in England still competing on all four fronts and will be desperate to end their trophy drought this season. Ten Hag's men are all-but in the final of the Carabao Cup after securing a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest in their semi-final first-leg tie.
