Jamal Blackman

The Town goalkeeper was defiant when called into action and saved several Crawley efforts and free-kicks during the second-half. But, he could do little to prevent the loss.

Helpless, 6.

Mal Benning

Slammed home Shrewsbury’s late consolation goal to provide the Town faithful with something to cheer about and give Shrewsbury hope of potentially salvaging a draw.

Scored, 7.

Josh Feeney

Teammates, coaching staff and supporters were furious at the decision that saw him sent off. Feeney had a soft penalty given against him just minutes into the second-half. He had defended well up to that point.

Sent-off, 5.

Toto Nsiala

The Town defender came close with a first-half header and defended well at the back for Town in the first period. He was one of four Shrewsbury players who received a booking.

Tried, 6.

George Nurse

You can’t fault his effort at the back. Nurse got stuck in making several tackles. But, without defensive partner Feeney in the second-half, the defence came under increased pressure and was exploited.

Tackled, 6.

Luca Hoole

The wing-back often got forward as he likes to and was alert to make interceptions. He came under pressure from a Kelly who looked to be tricky but stood strong.

Ran, 6.

Harrison Biggins

Biggins looked lively in the centre of the park and the majority of play came through him in the first period. The midfielder was at the heart of several lovely passages of play and pressed to win the ball back.

Created, 6.

Alex Gillead

Made some nice runs forward and looked to create from the middle. Tracked back to do his defensive duties and showed great composure to bring the wall away from danger.

Composed, 6.

John Marquis

Town’s top-scorer was unable to have a major say on the game. He made a brilliant interception before squaring to Lloyd for a big chance and was denied with a powerful effort.

Booked, 6.

Callum Stewart

He ran the show in the early stages and was eager to impress on what was his first home start. Got on the ball but was unable to test Crawley’s keeper.

First home start, 6.

George Lloyd

Dropped deep to win the ball and repeatedly drew fouls. Presented with a golden opportunity to earn the lead but took a touch before going down under challenge.

Nuisance, 6.
