Baseya scores brace in friendly

New striker Cedric Baseya scored a brace as a Reading XI side defeated University of Reading 4-0 on Tuesday at Hogwood.

The side was dominated by youth players but had some players with experience in Canadian International Ethan Gage, Michael Hector and Baseya, along with two un-named trialists.

It was one of the mystery tralists that opened the scoring with a fine strike from 30-yards before Baseya scored his first from close range.

The 6’5 giant then made it three just before the break as he brought down a loose, bouncing ball and struck home with purpose for Chris Cummings side.

Charlie Losasso then completed the scoring with a fine individual goal by unleashing a effort into the top corner and completing the rout and a good run out for the youthful side.
