Mido came on as sub to replace Alvez in Boro's home match versus Reading. Boro needed the three points from the home match but in the end, the game ended in an unexpected loss for Mido and Shawky's side who conceded a goal in the stoppage time.

Mido was dropped from the starting eleven after playing the entire 120 minutes against Sheffield United in the FA cup. On the other hand, Alves started instead for the first time.

The other Egyptian at Boro, Mohamed Shawky didn't make it to the match squad as he is still suffering from gron problems but he should be back within a week.

The game almost ended in a goalless draw but Reading scored from a counter attacking move in the stoppage time.
