Crewe 3-1 Swindon: Alexandra hit back for victory

Two late goals from Chris Porter and Charlie Kirk ensured Crewe stayed top of League Two as they came from behind to beat Swindon 3-1.

Porter cancelled out Eoin Doyle's first-half effort for the Robins and then poached a last-minute winner before Kirk added a third in stoppage-time as Crewe extended their unbeaten run to six games.

The Railwaymen dominated the first half when Swindon keeper Steven Benda did well to glove Harry Pickering's low effort around.

They overcame an early injury blow when veteran defender Nicky Hunt hobbled off to be replaced by Olly Lancashire and fought back after Doyle made the most of Swindon's first sight of goal very much against the run of play.

After Jordan Lyden's effort was blocked inside the box the striker pulled a right-footed effort into the bottom corner in the 37th minute.

Perry Ng was closer to squaring matters soon after the break when his enterprising run ended with a low shot that missed the bottom corner by inches.

But Crewe's pressure paid off and they levelled just before the hour mark when Tommy Lowery gathered a clearance on the edge of the box and drove at goal with Porter on hand in the six-yard box to head home.

Lancashire lifted a difficult chance over at the far post as Crewe searched for a winner which duly arrived in the last minute when Porter flicked home from the rebound from close range after his initial effort was repelled by Benda.

Kirk then bounded clear and lifted the ball over the onrushing Benda for the third.
