The manager of Reading Brian McDermott did not hide his disappointment after a loss of Chelsea with 2:4 last night. The guests coach believes that his team was robbed by the side judge who admitted decisive goal of Torres offside in the second half.

"The Kings" hold the prestigious 2:2 ten minutes before the end when after a great attack of the hosts the Spain international lead his team forward. Although he was a few feet behind the last two defenders in yellow teams, Torres was still enrolled among the goalscorers.

"Torres was offside and it was not a good night for assistant judge, for me - too" were the first words of McDermott. "After the game I just told him he was wrong. Everything in me felt that it was an ambush and was obviously so. Only he did not see it.

"My assistant said he would look at the situation on record. He can do it, that's life. People make mistakes and he made a mistake tonight. It is a pity that this was a crucial moment, because surely we would get to the point, "continued the former Arsenal player.

"I'mangry mostly because of the players. We did not deserve to lose. I even thought we will win, before we enter the strange minutes after the 70th, "concluded McDermott.
