Ryan Reynolds says Wrexham's dramatic 6-5 win took 'nine years' off of his life

The Welsh club, who currently play in the National League, were involved in a thrilling 6-5 win over Dover on Saturday.

Having gone 5-2 down at home to the division's bottom-placed team, 91st and 98th-minute goals somehow secured Reynolds and his team all three points.

And, after the game, the Hollywood star admitted that the result took 'nine years' off of his life. That's football for you!

He tweeted: "I just lost 9 years off my life. And I'm okay with that. Apologies to my family.

"Also, bury me in Wales."

This result comes in the same week that the club released a hilarious advert, starring Reynolds and the playing squad.

Reynolds, and fellow Hollywood superstar, Rob McElhenney, stunned everyone by buying the fifth-tier Welsh club back in February.

They are currently second in the National League, but look set for the play-offs with leaders Stockport 11 points clear at the top.

Wrexham are bidding to return to the Football League for the first time since 2008, with the top tier of conference football notoriously tricky to escape from.
