Crawley Town striker Matt Harrold played in goal for over 50 minutes and won man of the match as The Reds conceded a last-minute equaliser to draw 2 all with MK Dons on Saturday Afternoon.

With no recognised keeper on the bench, Harrold came on for regular Brian Jensen after the Dane dislocated a finger.
