Denied a late penalty having made it 3-2 in stoppage time, Dons exit the competition at the first round stage, but there were some strong performances against the League One Royals despite big changes to the side.
Here’s how we rated the players.

Saw some decent ball in the first-half, with some good touches and passes Photo: Jane Russell
10. Alex Gilbey - 7.5
Another goal for the skipper, with two good chances before it too, and found the side netting in the second-half. The midfield engine as ever Photo: Jane Russell
11. Jonathan Leko - 5.5
Bit of a mixed one for Leko - made some good promising runs, but tried to do too much and often his involvement came to nothing Photo: Jane Russell
12. Mo Eisa - 5
Just didn't get enough of the ball. Made promising runs but was seldom picked out. One good run saw the pass to him hit his back, which summed up his day Photo: Jane Russell
