Reading boss Brian McDermott is delighted with his team's 1-0 victory over West Ham United in the Premier League on Saturday.

Reading manager Brian McDermott has admitted that he is "very pleased" with his team's 1-0 victory over West Ham United on Saturday.

The Royals notched up only their second Premier League win of the season as Pavel Pogrebnyak grabbed the winner at the Madejski Stadium.

"I'm very pleased. We were very resilient today and we needed to be," McDermott told BBC Sport. "We know what we have to do to get results in this league and we move on now and look forward to our next game against Spurs.

"A couple of their players could have been sent off and you saw two teams desperate to win out there."

Saturday's triumph has seen Reading move off the bottom of the table.
