Assistant head coach Lee Bradbury and winger James Tilley both said it felt like a loss in the dressing room afterwards. But who stood out for the Reds?
These are the player ratings for the Carlisle United match on Saturday from supporters travelling back on Sunday after the game
OPINION Happy to see Crawley Town beat Leeds United and Derby County again - but there are better times ahead for Reds
5. Joel Lynch 8
Again another good dominant game, winning everything in the air.
6. Nick Tsaroulla 6
Not able to get forward as much as normal, but kept their winger quiet not allowing him to get many crosses into the box.
7. Jack Payne 8
Getting some game time and certainly cause the Carlisle midfield so problems and not allowing them to control the game.
8. Sam Matthews 6
A quiet game for Sam but was extremely busy in the midfield.
