Challenge match to take place this September

Reading Football Club are delighted to announce an exciting challenge match; we will play the Oman full national team at Madejski Stadium on Saturday 7th September, kick off 3pm.





This innovative fixture will see Nigel Adkins’ team take on a national side managed by former Paris St Germain and Rangers boss Paul Le Guen; who counts Wigan goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi as his captain.





The fixture gives us the rare opportunity to play a competitive game over a two-week international break, and comes during a 29-day gap in the Madejski Stadium fixture list. We are delighted to host strong opposition in an Omani team who drew twice with Australia in their World Cup 2014 group and took their bid for qualification right to the final game.



Tickets for the game are priced at £5 concessions and £10 adults. To buy call 0844 249 1871 or visit readingfcdirect.co.uk.
