Reading midfielder Jem Karacan made his long-awaited return from injury in Saturday's 2-2 friendly draw with AFC Bournemouth at Dean Court.
Karacan played the final 20 minutes of a well-contested friendly with the League One side. The Royals took an early first-half lead through defender Adrian Mariappa before Wes Thomas pulled the hosts level. Hal Robson-Kanu won a penalty before converting it himself, but the Cherries would not be denied and Miles Addison netted a good header to earn them a draw.Royals held on Karacan return
