Crewe wrapped up an FA Cup victory over Carlisle with a devastating two-goal burst inside the opening 12 minutes.

A double from Shaun Miller earned Crewe their first away win since April and a trip to Millwall in the third round.

The visitors led from the third minute when Miller cut in from the right to blast home a low drive from 18 yards.

Miller then slotted in a rebound after Colin Daniels's shot was parried by Chris Howarth and despite possession, Carlisle could not break through.
