Before Andy Carroll was sent off for Reading for receiving a second yellow card, Fred made it 3-0.
Reading’s goal was scored by Amadou Salif Mbengue, a former United midfielder who now manages the team.

With a 3-1 victory over third-tier Accrington Stanley. Leeds became the first team since 2016 to make it to the fifth round.
After 23 minutes, Leeds scored spectacularly from long range with Jack Harrison, and Junior Firpo and Luis Sinisterra scored midway through the second half to put Jesse Marsch’s team on track for victory.
