FA Trophy: Wrexham 3-1 Scunthorpe United

  • Published

Wrexham recovered to book a fourth-round FA Trophy trip to Altrincham.

The game kicked off 45 minutes late after Scunthorpe United were delayed by traffic, but despite their extra time on the bus the visitors took the lead.

A mistake at the back by Wrexham allowed Rob Apter to pick out Caolan Lavery to score past Rob Lainton.

Jake Bickerstaff equalised with a low shot, before Reece Hall-Johnson struck from close range and Elliot Lee sealed victory with a late third goal.

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson:

"It's always good to win. We had five players playing their first first-team game of the season and obviously that told a little bit, which you'd expect.

"But we grew into the game. We conceded a goal from a mistake but got back into it. At times it was a little bit of a struggle but there are reasons for that with the changes and a bit of rustiness.

"We have a proud record here and it's good to keep it going."
