Doncaster 1-1 Crewe
Saturday 12 October 2024 17:10, UK
Last season's play-off rivals Doncaster and Crewe could not be separated as they battled out a 1-1 draw at the Eco-Power Stadium.
Crewe had the edge when the two sides met in May's play-off semi-final as they progressed to Wembley via a penalty shootout and they took the lead on this renewal through Max Conway's fine individual effort.
But Doncaster drew level through substitute Kyle Hurst, who finished off a rapid counterattack on 73 minutes.

Rovers were largely in control of a first half of few chances. Kian Breckin pulled a volley off target for Crewe while Billy Sharp had the ball in the back of the net only to be denied by the offside flag.
