Wrexham owner Ryan Reynolds has hailed his players for a spirited FA performance against Chelsea. The clash ultimately ended in a 4-2 victory for Chelsea after 120 minutes of intense football, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he can only praise his team for pushing Chelsea football club to extra time in the FA Cup, especially after Wrexham was reduced to 10 men in the latter stages of the game.
Ryan added that he couldn’t be more proud of how the boys gave everything to progress to the next round.
His words, “Three years ago this week, we battled Maidenhead United to a draw. Today we pushed Chelsea to extra time. So incredibly proud of Wrexham’s performance today.”
WOW.
Chelsea Football Club is an English professional football club based in Fulham, West London. Founded in 1905, they play their home games at Stamford Bridge.
The club competes in the Premier League, the top division of English football. They won their first major honour, the League championship, in 1955. The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1970, their first European honour, the Cup Winners’ Cup, in 1971, and became the third English club to win the Club World Cup in 2022.
On 7 May 2022, Chelsea confirmed that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, to acquire the club. The group was later known as BlueCo.
The UK government approved the £4.25bn takeover, ending Abramovich’s 19-year ownership of the club. Bruce Buck, who served as chairman since 2003, was replaced by Boehly, while long-serving club director and de facto sporting director Marina Granovskaia left, as did Petr Čech from the role of technical and performance advisor.
