Reading manager Jose Gomes told BBC Radio Berkshire:
"It was a very good, strong defensive performance in terms of our organisation.
"We didn't give Cardiff any space to find a way through to our goal and there were some good transitions between defence and midfield through to our strikers.
"Those two were always a danger to the Cardiff defence, but like a team we did well to improve a lot of our defensive mistakes from the first two games.
"But, we can't get too carried away, we have to refocus on what's next which is Wednesday night at West Brom."
On striker George Puscas' performance: "I celebrated his first goal quite a lot on the touchline.
"When he picked the ball up, there wasn't much on and I was shouting at him to 'go, go, go' towards goal and the penalty area, which he did.
"Then once he was in the box, it was a fantastic individual finish."

5 at back 2nd half no wonder we couldn't get through? but we played into their hands by being ponderous slow going forward with no width typical NW tactics again away from home 1 upfront 9 behind halfway line....

When we go forward we just don’t get bodies in the box. Only on set pieces. Not good enough really we was poor all over the pitch
