Here is how we rated Rovers’ individual performances at Gresty Road. Let us know what you think on Twitter @FreePressRovers.
5. Reece James 7
Looked the most likely to get in behind Crewe, particularly in the first half when he found plenty of space in the left corner. Forced off injured early in the second half. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
6. Matt Smith 6
Full of energy in the middle of the park and was excellent when pushing Rovers forward but gave the ball away far too much inside his own half which put Rovers under pressure. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
7. John Bostock 7
Looked a class apart on the ball in the first half, making space for himself and playing some wonderful passes. Forced off injured early in the second half. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
8. Jason Lokilo 6
A lively presence throughout for Rovers. He carried the ball well and looked a threat down the right but struggled to convert it into anything in front of goal. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
