Crewe caretaker manager Dario Gradi felt his side were made to pay for their profligacy in front of goal after York scored twice in the final five minutes to knock Alex out of the FA Cup.

The League Two club were 2-1 up at the interval but Richard Brodie was the York hero after he hit the 88th-minute winner just moments after Richard Pacquette had equalised for the Minstermen.

Gradi said: "It's hugely disappointing to lose in such a fashion but you have to take your chances when they are given to you.

"You've got to give full marks to York for a great fight back.

"Their two strikers caused us trouble in the air all afternoon. It was a first rate game and very entertaining for both sets of supporters."
