'Indescribable' - Ryan Reynolds reacts to Paul Mullin's thunderbolt of a free-kick for Wrexham in vital League Two win over Barrow

The Red Dragons returned to winning ways on New Year’s Day, following their shock defeat to Walsall at the end of 2023, by easing their way to a 4-1 victory over fellow League Two promotion hopefuls Barrow at SToK Racecourse.

Wrexham scored three of their goals in first-half stoppage-time, with Mullin crashing home a spectacular free-kick in the 56th minute of an extended opening to the game. That effort was the 29-year-old striker’s 11th of the season and saw emotion spill out of him in front of jubilant home supporters.

Hollywood co-owner Reynolds was among those watching on from afar, and he said on social media of the spectacular strike and more wild scenes of celebration in Wrexham: “The love for this club and town: Indescribable.”

Reynolds, along with fellow co-chairman Rob McElhenney, will likely be back on British shores in the not too distant future – as they take in a first Wrexham visit of 2024 – and they will be delighted to see that Phil Parkinson’s side are now just two points off top spot in League Two, while boasting a game in hand on leaders Stockport.
