In front of 2.451 fans at the Banks’s Stadium, goals from Felipe Morais and Tom Dallison put the visitors 2-0 up.

Lavery pulled one back from the penalty spot but Ashley Nadesan restored Crawley’s two-goal cushion just 60 seconds later.

Lavery again netted to give the Saddlers hope. They then piled on the pressure in the closing stages with Cameron Norman coming closest to securing a dramatic equaliser when he rattled the crossbar.
