Football, and Izale McCloud’s 75th-minute penalty earned a vital three points for Crawley Town against League One relegation rivals Colchester United.

The match ended 3 – 2 to The Reds but other results mean that they remain 3 points from safety.

Elsewhere, in the Ryman league, Merstham enjoyed a convincing 4 nil victory at home to Hythe Town, while Three Bridges also won 4 – 2 in their match against Walton & Hersham. South Park also had a good afternoon with a 3 nil away win at Chipstead. Not so good for East Grinstead Town who lost 2 – 1 at Sittingbourne and Redhill who narrowly lost 2 – 1 at Walton Casuals.
