Commas
Hi,
"The controversy came at the end of a game which Ferguson was pleased to report had otherwise passed off without incident." [From The Telegraph.]
Should there be commas after the pronoun "which" and after the verb "report" in the sentence?
Thank you?

"Do you want to?"
The "?" is redundant (a typo); there should be full stop. Thank you, CJ, for your useful reply.
