Reading youngster banishes Wembley nightmare by leading Crawley to promotion
Reading youngster Liam Kelly banished his Wembley curse by leading Crawley Town to promotion into League One. The 28-year-old played nearly 100 times for the Royals and starred in the 2017 Championship play-off final under Jaap Stam, scoring his penalty in the shootout but ultimately losing out to Huddersfield Town. Relegated out of the EFL with Rochdale next season, the Republic of Ireland youth star has been a shining light for Crawley this season, scoring in the play-off semi final win over MK Dons and earning Man of the Match.
