In their final pre-season game, Crawley Town FC lost at home to Portsmouth.

New signing Thomas Verheydt opened the scoring for the Reds after just three minutes.  That lead was cancelled out by a brace from Pompey’s striker Brett Pitman.  The game ended Crawley Town 1 – 2 Portsmouth.

The Reds face Port Vale in their opening game of the new League Two season at the Checkatrade Stadium on Saturday.
