McCarthy denies Reds victory at the Madejski

Last updated : 13 April 2013 By Adam Bryant

Liverpool's hopes of European football next season suffered another blow as Reading hold on for a goalless draw on an afternoon of frustration for Brendan Rodgers' side.

Luis Suarez had the best of Liverpool's chances, but Steven Gerrard also came close as the Reading keeper put in a man of the match performance.

Reading twice went close late on only for Pepe Reina to deny Noel Hunt and Jobi McAnuff, but Liverpool will certainly see it as two points lost rather than one gained.
