Mark Carrington's goal helped spark a Crewe fightback

Gylfi Sigurdsson kept his cool from the spot as Crewe grabbed a draw after trailing 2-0 in the first 20 minutes.

Keeper John Ruddy, left stranded by a deflected Aaron Wilbraham shot for the first, then allowed a weak Jason Puncheon effort to sneak in.

Mark Carrington's 77th-minute header brought Crewe back into contention.

Three minutes later they were level when on-loan midfielder Sigurdsson converted a spot kick after keeper Willy Gueret had felled Alan Sheehan.
