Reading boss McDermott likens Fulham to Harlem Globetrotters

Reading boss Brian McDermott hailed Fulham's attacking players after their 3-3 draw.

A chaotic finish produced three goals in five minutes with substitute Hal Robson-Kanu prodding home the equaliser in the 90th minute.

Just three minutes earlier Dimitar Berbatov fired what appeared to be a classy winner, while Fulham substitute Bryan Ruiz had opened the second-half scoring with a terrific strike.

"You have to say Fulham looked like the Harlem Globetrotters when they brought Bryan Ruiz on," McDermott said.

"Ruiz cost them £10million. We all know Dimitar Berbatov is an absolute class act.

"They have Brede Hangeland at the back, Mahamadou Diarra in the middle and Damien Duff - they have a number of players of real quality."
