Grimsby 2-0 Crawley
Saturday 19 September 2026 18:04, UK
Grimsby continued their impressive start to the season with a 2-0 victory over struggling Crawley at Blundell Park.
The hosts were awarded a penalty 13 minutes in, with Charles Vernam brought down in the box by Ade Adeyemo, but Nicholas Michalski did well to deny the former with a full-stretch save to his left.
Michalski went from hero to zero as he then gave away a penalty, clattering into Grimsby right-back Harvey Rodgers near the byline.
Iwan Morgan stepped up this time and converted for his first goal for the club on the half-hour mark.

Grimsby had a second before the break, with Morgan turning provider to set up Kieran Green with a simple header in the centre of the box in the 42nd minute.
Green had a goal disallowed for offside after the break as the ball ricocheted in off him from a Rodgers cross.
Kellan Gordon headed narrowly wide from a corner with a free attempt at the back post as Crawley looked for a way back in the second half, which did not come.
