O líder da Championship, Middlesbrough, perdeu apenas seu segundo jogo na liga na temporada, e o Wrexham conquistou uma vitória muito necessária por 2 a 0 no Racecourse Ground na noite de quarta-feira.
O primeiro gol veio de George Thomason aos 71 minutos, e o reserva Oli Rathbone fez o segundo de cabeça aos 84, dando ao time da casa apenas sua quarta vitória na campanha, depois de derrotas consecutivas para Blackburn e Sheffield United.
O Boro viajou ao País de Gales com 11 jogos de invencibilidade na liga, mas sem o artilheiro lesionado Will Lankshear. Os 15 gols dele nesta temporada eram tantos quanto os de todo o elenco do Wrexham antes do apito inicial, e a ausência ficou evidente, com os visitantes criando pouco.
Phil Parkinson fez quatro mudanças e sua equipe cresceu no jogo antes do intervalo. No início do segundo tempo, o Wrexham teve um gol anulado por impedimento contra O'Brien, e depois abriu o placar quando o lançamento de Cleworth para a área foi afastado pela metade e Thomason acertou um chute forte da entrada da área.
“Era importante colocar isso de volta nos trilhos hoje”, disse Parkinson. “Hoje estivemos muito estruturados. Os espaços estavam apertados, então conseguíamos chegar na bola e tomá-la deles.”
O técnico do Boro, Kim Hellberg, disse: “Todo time sentiria falta do seu artilheiro… Precisamos encontrar maneiras, mas acho que todo time sofre se perde um jogador que marcou 13 gols em 13 jogos.”
