Former Reading chairman Sir John Madejski has said that he is "proud" of the team following their spirited defeat to Arsenal in the FA Cup semi-finals.
The Gunners won the match in extra time through an Alexis Sanchez strike, but Madejski has insisted that his beloved club will win trophies sooner rather than later.
He told BBC Sport: "I'm so proud of Reading and the fans must be delighted and now we have to concentrate on our league position. It's always a case of what might have been and to have lost that goal just before half time of extra time but it bodes well for the future of Reading football club and we live to fight another day.
"I think we played well above our level against an in form Arsenal. We'll be back and it's just a matter of time until we lift some silverware, we were always going to be underdogs and at the end of the day the best team won and the players and fans should be very proud."
Reading currently sit 19th in the Championship table.
