Crewe 1-2 Carlisle

Gareth Taylor and Joe Anyinsah both returned to haunt their former club Crewe as they got the goals that earned Carlisle a vital win at Gresty Road.

Gareth Taylor put the visitors ahead when Cleveland Taylor picked out the on-loan Doncaster Rovers man to rifle the ball past John Ruddy with a volley.

Graham Kavanagh then hit the bar, while Ruddy denied Cleveland Taylor superbly.

Clayton Donaldson swept in the leveller but Anyinsah nodded in Peter Murphy's flick-on to earn the Cumbrians the win.
