Wrexham Football Club owners and Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds watched as the team played against Grimsby in a nail-biting National League play-off Wrexham FC co-chairmen Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney watch the match against Grimsby at The Racehorse Ground in Wrexham It was a promising start for Wrexham after striker Paul Mullin scored the first goal of the match in a penalty shot, but the other team quickly caught up with a goal by John McAtee before half time. The second half of the match proved to be more action-packed than the first. Grimsby took the lead when Luke Waterfall scored their second goal, but were quickly overtaken by two goals from Wrexham in quick succession - from Ben Tozer and Paul Mullin respectively. Not to be outdone, Grimsby launched a late comeback - with two goals from Emmanuel Dieseruvwe taking them to a lead of 4-3.
