Steven Schumacher's dramatic stoppage-time goal earned relegation-threatened Crewe a deserved point at Walsall.

In the third minute of added time Schumacher took advantage of some slack defending to loop a header home.

Troy Deeney had earlier put the Saddlers in front when he stooped low to head in an Alex Nicholls cross.

Walsall keeper Clayton Ince kept out his former side, with Clayton Donaldson twice denied before substitute Schumacher pounced for a point.
