Black Stars right-back Andy Yiadom on Saturday produced a great performance to help Reading FC win a thriller at Swansea City in the English Championship.

It was a special occasion for Yiadom who wore the captain’s armband in the absence of skipper Liam Moore.

Former England internationals Andy Carroll and Danny Drinkwater claimed their first Reading goals in the 3-2 win.

Jamie Paterson put Swansea ahead only for Tom Dele-Bashiru to level within a minute.

Carroll scored just his third goal in four seasons before Ryan Manning's fine finish made it 2-2.

But Reading responded 70 seconds later as Drinkwater swept in the winner.

“It’s always nice to win away from home!” said Yiadom.

“We lost midweek, so it’s good to bounce back with three points.

“Swansea have been doing well and they knock the ball around really well. But all the boys stuck together and managed to get the win.

Yiadom has missed just one game for Reading this season. He has played in 19 league games so far.
