Bournemouth 1-1 Reading: Tom Ince equaliser dents Cherries promotion push

Tom Ince boosted Reading's survival hopes with a late equaliser at promotion-chasing Bournemouth.

Ince, son of Royals' interim manager Paul Ince, latched onto a loose ball following Ovie Ejaria's half-cleared corner to fire home with seven minutes left.

Dominic Solanke had opened the scoring in the eighth minute, slotting home his 22nd Championship goal of the season after good build-up play between Jordan Zemura and Jefferson Lerma.

The win left Reading two points clear of the relegation zone after rivals Barnsley cut the gap with a 2-0 win over Bristol City.

Meanwhile, second-placed Bournemouth closed the gap on Fulham to 11 points, with two games in hand, after the leaders lost at West Brom.
