But Colchester scored in the10th minute when Sammie Szmodics burst into the area and hit a superb shot past Crawley goalkeeper Lewis Price, after the visitors had failed to clear their lines.

But Crawley equalised four minutes later when former Colchester defender Ryan Dickson tapped home Lewis Young’s low cross.

Anthony Wordsworth hit the crossbar for the visitors, while at the other end Price tipped over Szmodics’ fine shot.

Crawley went ahead four minutes before half-time through Gavin Tomlin, who swept home through a crowd of players following Young’s cross.
