Crawley Town 2-6 Worthing: Player ratings - 3 for 'petulant' defender, West Ham and Fulham loanees score 4s on embarrassing night

Ade Adeyemo netted a first-half brace for the Reds – his first professional goals in only his second start – but the striker hobbled off with a concerning-looking injury at half-time with Scott Lindsey’s side 3-2 down.

Harry Ransom also limped off in a topsy-turvy half which saw the Reds twice take the lead but they couldn’t keep things tight at the back.

Little could have been done to stop a screamer from Jesse Starkey but the second and third goals came after some questionable defending from Crawley.

They never really looked like equalising after the break, with Worthing looking the more likely, and things went from bad to worse when Travis Johnson saw red for a petulant off the ball incident. He appeared to hold Bailey Smith by the neck in a moment of madness and the referee gave him his marching orders after liaising with the linesman.

The game looked like it was petering out before Worthing ran riot with three late goals to seal a 6-2 win and progress to the next round of the Sussex Senior Cup.

The outstanding Joan Luque scored a deserved goal before an audacious chip from Ollie Pearce and a fine finish off the post by Bailey Smith sealed a memorable win for non-league Worthing over their League Two opponents.

Luca Ashby-Hammond – 4: Conceded six goals on a less than ideal night for the Fulham loanee. No chance with superb strike from distance. Couldn’t have done much about the second one. Beaten at his near post for the third. Important saves in second-half before Worthing ran riot against ten-men. Beaten by Luque’s fine finish and will be disappointed to be chipped for the fifth goal. Conceded again with last kick of the game.

Jayden Davis – 4: One of three Crawley changes from the EFL Trophy game at Sutton. First start of the season for Crawley for the midfielder who is on loan at Farnborough. Owing to competition rules, players that are out on loan are eligible to play in Sussex Senior Cup fixtures. Took up an attacking position on the right hand side but didn't make a real impact on the game. Booked for bad foul.

Will Wright – 5: Clear foul on opponent early on. Some nice passes. Will be disappointed to have conceded those three first-half goals. Subbed in the second-half.

Harry Ransom – 6: Captained the side and the night started well with a good assist for opening goal. Looked badly hurt and had to be subbed at 2-2.

Joy Mukena – 5: Suspect defensively, on the right of a back three. A good cross as Crawley threatened. A couple of important interceptions.
