'We can't beat Crawley Town, and that's a worrying, worrying thing' - Stoke City boss Nathan Jones reacts to Carabao Cup defeat
Stoke are currently in 23rd place in the Championship and lost on penalties at The People's Pension Stadium - in a game the Reds could have won in normal time.
The Potters took the lead but we pegged back by Nathan Ferguson's strike. And in the end Jones' side were holding on following the dismissal of Natahn Collins early in the second half.
