Reds earn dramatic late point

Two goals in the final seven minutes earned Crawley a dramatic 2-2 draw against Coventry at Sixfields.


A Mat Sadler own goal and a Franck Moussa header looked to have secured all three points for the Sky Blues, but goals from Jamie Proctor and Adam Drury was enough to earn the visitors a share of the points in a thrilling comeback.


After a dominant first half, the Sky Blues took the lead when Carl Baker's set-piece was met by the head of Andy Webster, and his touch was diverted in by Sadler in the 40th minute.


Moussa doubled the advantage from a similar set-play in the 82nd minute as he headed in Webster's touch on the line to make it 2-0.


Former Swansea striker Proctor was brought on by manager John Gregory to replace Gary Alexander with 12 minutes to go, and he had an instant impact on the game, scoring a header a minute later.


Just two minutes later the Sky Blues failed to clear a corner allowing Drury to finish in the six-yard box.
