Highlights of the Sky Bet League Two match between Grimsby and Crawley.

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.
