Wrexham fans were on the edge of their seats as the Red Dragons orchestrated a thrilling 3-2 comeback against QPR. The match at Loftus Road seemed destined for a somber ending when QPR’s Steve Cook headed them into a lead in the 80th minute. But emerging from the bench like a hero in the final act, Josh Windass was there to change the narrative entirely.
Introduced just after QPR’s second goal, Windass smashed home a stunning equaliser from the edge of the box in the 93rd minute. Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, he turned playmaker two minutes later, setting up Ollie Rathbone to seal the victory and boost Wrexham into sixth place in the table. It was the stuff dreams are made of!
Yet, as the celebrations erupted around him, Windass’s own reserved reaction got fans talking. Despite his decisive performance, the 31-year-old barely showed any emotion after scoring, prompting some fans to question what might be going on behind the scenes.
Taking to social media, fans questioned, “Why didn’t he celebrate his goal? It seems off.” Others speculated whether he was truly content at the club. However, Windass himself had previously explained his muted celebrations as nothing out of the ordinary. He’s known for keeping calm even after scoring spectacular goals and says he just doesn’t feel the urge to make a fuss.
While his celebration style might not match the fireworks on the pitch, it looks like Windass is as focused as ever. His mother did stir the pot a bit with some cryptic posts after the match, leading to further chatter, but that could be down to his starting position on the bench.
Despite all the chatter, it’s clear Windass made a massive impact, and the excitement doesn’t end here. The anticipation is already building for Wrexham’s next challenge. Keep your eyes peeled and fingers crossed for the lads as they prepare to face off against their next opponents.
