Co-owner Ryan Reynolds was in attendance at a raucous Racecourse Ground as the National League outfit narrowly missed out on the shock victory over Championship promotion favourites Sheffield United, who required a late goal to draw the thrilling FA Cup tie.

His fellow owner Rob McElhenney, wasn't able to attend the occasion but thankfully the Deadpool actor was on hand to ring his pal and ensure he got a slice of the atmosphere from the fourth round clash.

Sheffield United took the lead just a minute into the clash through Oli McBurnie's header.
The Welsh outfit responded brilliantly, creating a series of chances before levelling five minutes after the break through James Jones' scrappy effort.
Reynolds couldn't contain his excitement when celebrating the equaliser but things got a whole lot better when Thomas O'Connor put them 2-1 up on 61 minutes.
Oliver Norwood made it 2-2 four minutes later but Paul Mullin appeared to have won it for Wrexham with a composed finish on 86 minutes.

As it appeared Wrexham were closing in on the famous win, the home fans chanted 'there's only one Ryan Reynolds', the actor responding by smiling and bowing to the adoring supporters.

But just moments later the joy turned into despair as Jon Egan equalised for Paul Heckingbottom's men in the fifth minute of stoppage-time.
Commenting on the truly marvellous spectacle, Adrian Durham said on commentary for talkSPORT: "That was absolutely fantastic. Hollywood doesn't do drama like this, brilliant stuff.
"There was disbelief, actually, at the final whistle. I think that the Wrexham fans, who thought they had it won, couldn't quite believe that they haven't knocked Sheffield United out and then they realised.
"Every single one of these players deserves a song, deserves applause and deserves the love and now the Wrexham players are giving it back to the fans who were magnificent here this evening.

"We had a whole range of Welsh songs sang loud and proud by the Wrexham fans and they really got behind their team, but Sheffield United would not lie down, even with 10 men.
"But this was real drama, you can't script it. Hitchcock, Spielberg, Tarantino, they can't come up with this - only football, the beautiful game can up with the emotional reaction that we've been lucky enough to be a part of here at Wrexham.

"Mullin was the hero, Egan was the villain who not only stole victory from the non-leaguers right at the end, he then celebrated right in front of the home fans.
"No Hollywood scriptwriter would dream of putting that in the script, absolutely sensational stuff in the FA Cup tie that had absolutely everything and the only bonus is that they've got to play each other again."
Pre-match Reynolds spoke to broadcaster Gary Lineker about his and McElhenny's time with Wrexham so far, suggesting their involvement is a 'multi-decade project'.

He said: "I co-own this football club with Rob McElhenney and generally speaking, it's been the greatest experience of my entire life, my children and wife notwithstanding because I know that will come back to haunt me!
"This adventure has been unlike anything else and I love that I love it because it's a project that is going to be multi-decades with this club and this town and all that it entails.
"It's been brilliant. I love getting here early because I get to meet some of the locals and supporters who have been coming here for decades and decades.

"I met a supporter the other day whose grandfather's ashes were scattered across this field so I look at this place a bit like a church, that's what it really is because it's really bought a special place in my heart, our families' heart and across the pond too.
"People are obsessed with this club and community in the States and it's been pretty remarkable."
Asked about his newfound passion for football, Reynolds added: "I'm so in love with this sport that I actually hate it. I wish I'd never met it!
"My weeks, my months, my years are built around Wrexham matches and in some ways I wish they weren't, but it really has been the gift that keeps on giving in this community.

"Win or lose, we do it together and it's just been remarkable.
"I do 10,000 steps up here each match, walking up and down like a caged lion and for a match like today."
After the match, Reynolds tweeted: "When Rob McElhenney and I got into this it all felt so impossible. But impossible is Wrexham_AFC's favourite colour.
"That was one of the most exciting things I've EVER seen. Thank you each and every Wrexham supporter who came out and aimed your heart at that pitch tonight."

The excitement of the Cup even got too much for the club at one point as they forgot which Sheffield they would be playing.
Thankfully, Sheffield FC - the oldest club in the world - corrected them with a cheeky reply on Twitter.
Remember, it's Bramall Lane for the replay…
