Full-time: Crawley 1-0 Barrow
Job done for Crawley.
Appiah’s fine finish is the difference as Barrow slip closer to the relegation zone.
Off the line!
(90) So nearly a late leveller for Barrow as a powerful shot looks to be heading in but Francomb, standing on the goalline, someone keeps it out!
Chance!
(85) Appiah has a golden chance to seal the points as he is played in one-on-one with Farman but the keeper did well to save it.
Yems is shaking his head, he thinks that should have been 2-0 and game over.
Crawley now have a free-kick as Nichols is fouled.
(82) Hessenthaler picks out Francomb with a superb long range pass but the defender doesn’t make the touch he was hoping for and the keeper comes out to claim.
