Reading 2-2 Swansea: Steve Cooper's men secure play-off spot despite late sucker punch as Tomas Esteves equalises deep into stoppage time... but the Royals miss out on the top six

Anyone hoping the play-off race would sustain the drama of the Championship to the very end will be sorely disappointed.

It's all done and dusted with two rounds of the season left. Brentford, Bournemouth, Barnsley and Swansea will slug it out to join Norwich and Watford in next season's Premier League.

Those four can jostle for position to decide the semi-final fixtures in the next fortnight but with the reassurance they can no longer be caught.

Reading were the division's last hope of chasing them down but this draw with Swansea ends all that.
