Crewe Alexandra 2-5 Rochdale
- Published
Emergency striker Matt Done scored a hat-trick as Rochdale came from behind to crush Crewe Alexandra and earn a first win of the season.
Marcus Haber fired the hosts ahead but Ian Henderson prodded a leveller and teed up Done, whose tap-in made it 2-1.
Done ran clear to strike a third but Haber's second, when he glanced home Matt Tootle's cross, made it 3-2.
However, Peter Vincenti drove in number four and Done completed his treble with a fine strike after racing clear.
Rochdale manager Keith Hill told BBC Radio Manchester:
"People looked at the starting line-up and thought 'he's gone mad'.
"There's got to be a certain bravery or stupidity to what I do. The reward was the result and the performance.
"At the end of the game, it felt better than winning promotion because there was a massive risk to picking that side."
