But for Kewell it was the nature of the display that was most pleasing on an autumnal evening at Meadow Lane.

“I’m very happy with the result but more happy with the performance,” he told the club’s official website. “We did the ugly side of football and got our rewards.

“We stuck in there in moments when the tide was turning a little bit but then we pounced and looked compact and steady.

“Crawley had one or two shots from distance but one in 50 of those go in.

“I’m proud of the players because it’s been a tough week. We’ve got back-to-back wins now and we can push on.”
