Federici hails Reading confidence

Last updated : 09 December 2010 By BBC Sport

Reading goalkeeper Adam Federici says confidence in the Royals camp is high despite not having won a game since the 4-3 victory over Doncaster in October.Reading host Coventry on Saturday having drawn four of their last five games to slip to 12th in the table.

"Confidence is high, we know we need to start winning and Coventry is a big game so we're looking forward to it," Federici told BBC Berkshire.

"We're playing well but we're missing that quality that will win us games."

The Australian international added: "It's been frustrating for us and the fans because we've put in some good performances but that little bit of luck hasn't gone our way.

"We'll look back on the games and feel fortunate it hasn't been worse and teams haven't nicked a few more points from us."

The cold snap meant last Saturday's scheduled fixture against Sheffield United was postponed and Federici says he is excited by the prospect of getting back onto the pitch.

"You can't do much in this weather and it affects training massively but it's now cleared up a bit and we've trained on the Madejski pitch, so it will be great to get back onto the grass and playing again on Saturday," he added.
