MK Dons 1 – 5 Crawley
Crawley blew MK Dons away for the second time in a matter of days as a 5-1 victory at Stadium MK – and an 8-1 win on aggregate – took them to the Sky Bet League Two play-off final.
Scott Lindsey’s side had established a 3-0 first-leg lead in West Sussex on Tuesday – and that was extended to 5-0 within the first half-hour in Buckinghamshire, courtesy of Jay Williams and Danilo Orsi.
Max Dean volleyed in to pull one back for the hosts, but the two-goal cushion on the night was restored by Orsi after slick build-up between Klaidi Lolos and Liam Kelly.
Dean saw a penalty well-saved by Reds goalkeeper Corey Addai, before Jack Roles came off the bench to smash in a fourth, shortly after he had crashed a shot off the left-hand post.
Orsi then turned in a Ronan Darcy cross in second-half stoppage time to complete his hat-trick and round off a thoroughly one-sided affair.
Crawley will face Crewe at Wembley on Sunday May 19 – live on Sky Sports Football – with a place in Sky Bet League One at stake.
