Wrexham AFC co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are always up for a laugh, and they shared one of their latest at the Racecourse Ground. While co-commentating on Wrexham’s recent Championship win over Swansea City, Ryan and Rob reminisced about an amusing FaceTime mix-up during their FA Cup match against Chelsea involving none other than David Beckham!
During the high-stakes game, Reynolds and McElhenney attempted to chat with Beckham via FaceTime, but chaos and noise turned it into a pantomime of exaggerated facial expressions and futile attempts to communicate. Despite the awkwardness, Reynolds reflected on the game as a defining moment for the club, highlighting how taking Chelsea into extra time was a victory in itself for Wrexham.
After an exciting 2-0 win over Swansea, Wrexham is climbing the Championship ranks, currently holding onto the fourth and final play-off spot. With just nine matches left in the season, the Dragons are keen to maintain their stride. Will they make it to the Premier League next season? Fans are on the edges of their seats!
Despite their FA Cup exit, the camaraderie and respect between Wrexham and Chelsea players after the match is a testament to the sportsmanship and community spirit the beautiful game is all about. Here’s to more thrilling moments and maybe fewer FaceTime misunderstandings with football royalty for Reynolds and McElhenney. Up the Dragons! 🐉⚽️
