In a fairly subdued start to the game, Wolves were relatively comfortable in possession throughout the early stages. But a foul by Wes Okoduwa handed the hosts the chance to whip in a free-kick and Seb Revan’s cross was met by Mo Faal, who headed over. James Jones then took aim from distance but Tom King got down well to save his effort.

The hosts then extended their advantage in the 37th minute when Paul Mullin latched onto a ball over the top from Forde and chipped the onrushing King.

Wolves entered the half-time break losing 2-0. It took Wrexham just 12 minutes of the second half to add their third.
