But the 34-year-old endured a disastrous opening 45 minutes and was hooked off at half-time with his side 3-0 behind.
Wright wasn’t handed the opportunity to make amends after injury ruled him out of the clash.
Taking to Twitter, he told his fans: “Little update. Since the game last Saturday for Crawley I have been out of training.
“I injured my hip/rib area of my left side from striking the ball.
“I won’t be there tonight because of this but hope to be back training Thursday.
“Good luck to the lads tonight.”
In Wright’s absence, Crawley stumbled to another defeat with Elliot Osborne grabbing Stevenage’s winning goal in the 83rd minute.

Wright, who played for Tottenham in his youth, had been semi-pro at Crawley in 2006-07 before shooting to fame on The Only Way Is Essex.
Wright left the game after becoming a household name as Crawley went on to achieve promotion to the EFL.
But his desire to play football never diminished and he has starred at Soccer Aid, with Chelsea legend John Terry encouraging him to go professional.
