He first slammed home a spectacular bicycle kick – only to be flagged offside from Junior Hoilett’s cross.
Moments later he once again had the ball flying into the back of the net as he controlled a flighted pass with his chest before rifling home with his left foot.
But the 33-year-old was flagged offside for a second time as Reading struggled for a breakthrough.
Harry Wilson had already opened the scoring for Fulham at the Madejski.
And Aleksandar Mitrovic made it 2-0 to the visitors going into half-time after Carroll’s pair of disallowed efforts.
