EFL: Crawley promoted to League One
Crawley Town 2 - 0 Crewe Alexandra Crawley Town secured promotion to League One after a nine-year absence by defeating Crewe Alexandra 2-0 at Wembley. Despite being predicted by many to face relegation at the start of the season, Crawley defied expectations. Their victory in the League Two play-off final on Sunday means they will compete in the third tier for only the second time in their history, the first since 2015. Goals from Danilo Orsi and Liam Kelly, scored late in each half, were enough to secure the win in the sweltering London heat during Crawley's first-ever visit to Wembley in their 128-year history.
