    Hibbert and Labadie secure the points for hosts

    Shrewsbury deservedly took the points with a 2-0 win over Crewe as the two sides met for the first time in 13 years. Neither side managed a shot on goal until 29 minutes when Dave Hibbert notched his sixth of the season, sweeping in a left-footed shot on the turn after a corner. An unlucky bounce denied Jake Robinson after half-time but Shrewsbury upped the pressure after 69 minutes when Joss Labadie fired low beyond David Button from 25 yards, before going close again a minute later. Joel Grant was the pick of the Crewe attack but after firing over from five yards in the first half he went on to miss two good chances late on. Substitute Anthony Elding also skimmed the bar with his first touch and Byron Moore hit the post. Graham Coughlan headed against the post for Shrewsbury who kept their first clean sheet of the season.
