James Collins' side dominant but held at Reaseheath

Crewe Alexandra's Under 21 side had to settle for a draw despite dominating much of their clash with Nottingham Forest.

Saturday's hero Ryan Colclough started in what was an experienced Alex side which also included George Ray, Anthony Stewart, Brad Inman and Billy Waters.

Table toppers Forest were troubled by James Collins's side in the first half but negated the threat much better in the second as the game ended in a stalemate, despite Waters striking the post.
