Crawley Town 0-1 Sutton United RECAP: Visitors score late winner after Tom Nichols missed penalty

Ashley Nadesan earns the loudest applause of the day after running back to barge a Sutton player off the ball, legally.

Ludwig Francillette and Ashley Nadesan are on for the Reds.

They replace Will Ferry and Jack Powell

(60) Dallison, arguably the man of the match so far, pulls out another great tackle to stop a cross.

It’s out for a corner.

Nick Tsaroulla shows good pace to beat an attacker to the ball and clears well.

It sets Crawley off on a counter attack which ends in Will Ferry tamely shooting straight at the keeper from a good position.

(53) Sutton look to counter at pace but a poor touch from Enzio Boldewijn allows Crawley to easily clear

(50) Excellent defending by Tom Dallison to stop Wilson’s strike from troubling Morris.

Sutton nearly take the lead seconds after the restart.

Donovan Wilson’s effort is deflected and it goes narrowly wide of the post. It had Morris scrambling.

The second-half begins!

Can either side find a winner in this half ?
