Reading 1 Everton 0

Andy Johnson will be hoping for better luck with England next week after spurning a golden late chance to rescue a point for Everton, who lost their 100% record at Reading this afternoon.

The Toffees striker looks set to be given another chance to impress Steve McClaren against Germany at Wembley on Wednesday night, with England’s attacking options hit by injury and forthcoming suspensions ahead of the Euro 2008 qualifiers.
