Just after the break, Crawley won a penalty with Rushian Hepburn-Murphy stepping up to the spot and slotting away from 12 yards. Shrewsbury's Josh Feeney was shown a red card for dissent.

Minutes later, Armando Quitirna had a free-kick from 20 yards out, which tested Jamal Blackman, but he managed to tip it over the crossbar.
Just before the end, Shrewsbury pulled one back with Mal Benning converting from close range, but Crawley held on.
