Tranmere Rovers secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over Crawley Town with both goals coming in the first half at Prenton Park. Zech Obiero opened the scoring after 12 minutes, capitalizing on a well-worked move down the right flank before firing home from close range. The hosts doubled their advantage just before the break when Joe Ironside converted from the penalty spot after being brought down in the area. Crawley struggled to create clear-cut chances throughout and their afternoon was summed up by the numerous bookings they picked up, including late cards for time-wasting and dissent as frustrations boiled over.
