Ryan Reynolds reacts as Wrexham extend ridiculous goal record with high-scoring thriller

talksport.com, 14 October 2023, 17:21
Wrexham are proving why they're attracting fans all over the world with another goal-filled victory.

Facing Salford City in 'the documentary derby', the Welsh side came from two goals down to win 3-2 at the Racecourse Ground.

Elliot Lee got a goal back for the hosts before the break, before Steven Fletcher and Jordan Davies scored in the 88th and 89th minute respectively.

As well as earning a valuable three points, that result meant that Wrexham's home ground has seen a staggering 41 goals in seven League Two fixtures this term, giving their matches a ridiculous average of 5.86 goals per game.

While not all of those strikes have gone Wrexham's way, it's clear to see why Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney aren't struggling to draw in new supporters.

Taking to Instagram, Reynolds shared a story from his production company, Maximum Effort, that read: "Apparently you can fit two goals, over 180 heartbeats and a single 200 decibel scream into a single minute."

As a result of their win, Wrexham are now on a run of five matches without defeat, taking them to fifth in the table and what may well turn into another promotion race for fans of the FX documentary to enjoy.

But while entertainment is clearly the name of the game at the Racecourse Ground, ex-Sunderland star Micky Gray believes that their leaky defence may cause them problems as the season unfolds.

"What a turnaround," said Gray on talkSPORT 2's live coverage.

"They can't keep going behind because it's going to catch up with them, but give them full credit, they just never give in.

"This is where this squad helps - bringing on players like Steven Fletcher who got the equalising goal, most sides in the division can't do that and he came up with a brilliant finish.

"When the winning goal went in this stadium just erupted.

"They were waiting for a moment like that and they got it, but Neil Wood's side will be absolutely devastated that they're coming away from this stadium with nothing at all because I think they deserved something out of it.

"But it is a massive win for Wrexham."
