    He, along with fellow co-chairman Rob McElhenney, arrived at SToK Racecourse as something of a soccer novice. Reynolds has learned quickly, though, and is now showcasing his own football ability during a visit to Brazil.

    Reynolds thumped home a spot-kick at the Maracana, leading to him wheeling off in celebration – with his shirt ripped off in the process, which would have earned a yellow card!

    Canada, who now have Jesse Marsch at the helm, suffered a Copa America semi-final defeat to Lionel Messi and Argentina. Wrexham will soon be passing through their part of the world, when taking in a friendly with MLS side the Vancouver Whitecaps on their North American tour, but Mullin will sit that game out as he recovers from surgery to fix long-standing injury issues.
