Reading Tn 0, AFC Wallingford 0: AFC Wallingford failed to score for the first time in the Seagrave Haulage Combined Counties Premier Division this season when they were held by a spirited Reading side at Scours Lane.
Wallingford were the more creative team, but they could not capitalise on their possession.
Gary Stevens bundled the ball home during the first half for Wallingford, but the 'goal' was ruled out for a foul on keeper Abid Hussain.
In the second half of the Boxing Day clash, the visitors came under pressure, but goalkeeper Strudley was rarely troubled.
Wallingford's new signing, Lee Chudy, came on at the start of the second half and he created problems for the home defence.
He looked to have won a penalty when he was brought down after jinking past two defenders, but the referee waved play on.
Bradley Ward and Andy Shildrick also had chances, but Wallingford didn't do enough to merit a win.
