'Hungry and aggressive' Wrexham display pleases Smith

Sam Smith believes Wrexham's hunger and aggressive nature paved the way for his side's return to winning ways at Wycombe Wanderers.

Phil Parkinson's side saw their four-game winning run away from home in the league come to an end on Tuesday night as they were beaten 2-0 by Reading.

But they responded to that setback at the Select Car Leasing Stadium with a vital 1-0 win at Wycombe - with Smith scoring the only goal of the match at Adams Park.

Victory lifted Wrexham above the Chairboys into second in League One, and Smith lauded strike partner Steven Fletcher for his assist.

"I just know when Fletch comes on, he's a presence. If I can get around him he can create a chance," said Smith.

"I caught it sweet. I think it took a little nick, but it's in the back of the net, that's all that matters.

"It's massive. Everyone was bitterly disappointed on Tuesday night, it wasn't us, it was so far from what we want to be as a team.

"We came here today hungry and aggressive and I think the game plan worked.

"I want to be challenging for promotion and try and chip in with goals and put in good performances and hard work for the team.

"I'm looking forward to the nine massive games, but we'll take each one as it comes."

The match was delayed with the score at 0-0 as a Wrexham supporter needed medical attention.

The fan was later taken to hospital in a stable condition, with Smith netting his third goal since joining Wrexham in January shortly after play resumed.

The 27-year-old celebrated his strike in front of the travelling supporters and made a heart gesture in tribute to the fan.

"The gaffer made a clear point that we're here to play football, but people come to watch and it's what everyone loves," added the forward.

"When something happens like that, it puts things into perspective.

"We've heard he's in a stable condition so everyone's happy about that and I think he'll be delighted when he finds out the result.

"The manager said to go out there and do it for the fans, and I think we did that."
