Newport boosted their League Two play-off prospects with a 2-0 win over 10-man Crawley at Rodney Parade. County battered their opposition in the first half but could not find the breakthrough. Padraig Amond had a goal ruled out for offside after skipper Joss Labadie had struck the post. Liam Shephard fired past Glenn Morris to give Mike Flynn's seventh-placed Exiles a deserved lead in the 52nd minute. There looked little on when he picked up possession 30 yards from goal, but the defender's brilliant strike found the bottom corner via a slight deflection.
