Wrexham Edges Blackpool with Late Penalty

:In a thrilling Boxing Day match, Wrexham secured a crucial 2-1 victory over Blackpool at the foggy Racecourse Ground. The game saw an early lead for Blackpool through Ashley Fletcher's goal in the third minute, but Wrexham's Paul Mullin equalized with a stunning left-footed volley.

The match seemed destined for a draw until the 88th minute, when a handball by Blackpool's Olly Casey awarded Wrexham a penalty. Experienced striker Steven Fletcher calmly slotted the penalty home, securing the win for Wrexham.

This victory keeps Wrexham in third place in the League One standings, just a point behind Wycombe Wanderers, who are in second place. Both Wycombe and league leaders Birmingham City also secured wins on Boxing Day, maintaining the tight competition at the top of the table.

Wrexham, owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, continues their strong form after back-to-back promotions in English football. They next face Wigan Athletic on Sunday.
