Crewe



Port Vale's play-off hopes took a bit of a dent in the local derby between local rivals Crewe.
Both teams started the game rather evenly and a 0-0 draw would have been a fair results. But it was a controversial decison that changed the game.
Vale defender Gareth Owen won the ball cleanly from Clayton Donaldson, and one of the worst refereeing performances you will see in League Two this season. Donaldson stepped up for the resulting spot kick, firing past goalkeeper Chris Martin, who was back between the sticks after Anyon's mistake at Cheltenham last week.
Vale's heads dropped after the decison and frustration set in as balls pinged around everywhere.
Both temas have shared the spoils this season, with Vale winning 2-1 at Gresty Road back in October.
With both sides set to remain in League Two for another season it looks the two will meet for a re-match next year.

Final Score from Vale Park

Port Vale 0 Crewe Alexandra 1
