Football: Crawley Town 1:1 Walsall

A last minute goal from Danilo Orsi last-gasp meant Crawley avoided a fourth defeat in a row as they drew 1-1 with Walsall.

The first half was very quiet goal wise as either team failed to score.

But in the 88th minute Walsall’s Danny Johnson gave The Saddlers a 1-0 lead.

But celebrations were short lived with Orsi’s header in extra time.
