“Seemed Like a Freak Accident”- Wrexham Owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney Were Unfazed and Kept ‘Cool’ During Penultimate Promotion Match

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney were in the stands with the Antman, Paul Rudd, as Wrexham AFC was busy winning the title trophy. The match started a bit more quickly than fans anticipated as Wrexham conceded in the first minute. But the match would end 3-1 in favor of the Welsh club and they would go on to lift the trophy in the Racecourse ground.

Wrexham has broken the 15 yrs of league soccer exile as they got the automatic promotion to EFL and now will be fighting for back-to-back promotions. The team dominated the league, the whole season and ended the season with a record 111 points.

The owners have unimaginable pride in their club. They support their team no matter what. As recently reported, the star duo skipped the Met Gala dinner to be with the team and work for the upcoming season. They had full faith in the team when Wrexham AFC conceded the first-minute goal against Boreham Wood.

Owners had faith in Wrexham

In a recent talk with S4C, both owners revealed how they felt during the season-defining match against Boreham Wood. The stars revealed how they were not really bothered by the goal as they knew that their ‘super-team’ has the capabilities to fight back in these circumstances.

When asked about the moment, Reynolds said, “I don’t think either of us freaked out when that first goal happened. I think we kind of kept our cool.” He got the approval from McElhenney, who added “It just seemed like a freak accident. It happens in sports. Very quickly, we took control of that game and it felt like the goals were coming.”

Uncertainty about the future

While the team and fans are celebrating a marvelous achievement, there are a few questions that arise since the season is over. The most important one and the one which everybody is looking out for is about the hero of the tail end of the season, Ben Foster. He joined to drag Wrexham to promotion after Rob Lainton got injured. However, him saying, “Let’s do this again next year” to Rob McElhenney has sparked the talks about him resigning.
