READING CITY continue their reign at the top of the table after they hit six past Wokingham & Emmbrook.

In a match pitting two sides at contrasting ends of the table in a local derby clash, it was the Cityzens who took the points and maintained their stunning league form in a goal filled contest.

City broke the deadlock after 17 minutes from the penalty spot when Josh Baines finished emphatically as the ball smacked the underside of the bar on its way in.

The Sumas replied just seven minutes later when Jake Woods drove forward for the visitors and lashed a lethal shot into the bottom corner to level the scores.

The goals kept coming and Reading were back in front in the 31st minute when Eddie Lee latched onto a long ball and rolled the ball past Sean Woodward to finish.
