\n Although 3-1 down after 24 hours – an own goal had put Reds back on level terms – Kieffer Moore reduced the deficit for Phil Parkinson’s side before the break.\n<\/p>\n
\n There was only one team in it after that and Wrexham equalised through Ryan Longman before Moore, with his 12th goal of the season, made it 4-3 and Josh Windass converted a penalty to complete the scoring and seal a brilliant comeback victory.\n<\/p>\n
\n Here’s how the players rated.\n<\/p>\n
\n ARTHUR OKONKWO: It was a tough start for Wrexham who trailed 3-1 after 24 minutes but Okonkwo made some good saves after that. 6\n<\/p>\n
\n MAX CLEWORTH: The Reds switched off as United took control of the game but they got to grips with the visitors after that. 6\n<\/p>\n
\n DOMINIC HYAM: Wrexham’s back-line recovered from the iffy start and Hyam was unlucky not to win a penalty at the other end. 6\n<\/p>\n
\n CALLUM DOYLE: The defending was not up to scratch as United build up a two-goal lead but Wrexham nullified their threat in the second half. 6\n<\/p>\n
\n RYAN LONGMAN: Eclipsed by Thomason, the other wing-back, but his 51st minute equaliser set the tone for the second half. 7\n<\/p>\n
\n MATTY JAMES: Parkinson went with two holding midfielders with James and Sheaf running the game in the second half. 7\n<\/p>\n
\n BEN SHEAF: The holding midfielder was a presence in front of the defence but also got forward to support attacks and played well. 8\n<\/p>\n
\n GEORGE THOMASON: A revelation playing out of position at left wing-back, having a hand in three goals before winning a penalty. Blades will be glad to see the back of Thomason. 9\n<\/p>\n
\n JOSH WINDASS: Wrexham’s attacking play was good all game but they really did step up a gear in the second half. Assist for first goal and scored penalty. 8\n<\/p>\n
\n KIEFFER MOORE: Was a threat all match and was rewarded with two goals against his former club. 8\n<\/p>\n
\n NATHAN BROADHEAD: Had a brilliant game, maybe his best for Wrexham. United could not handle him and had assist for Moore’s second goal. 8\n<\/p>\n
\n SUBSTITUTES\n<\/p>\n
\n SAM SMITH: Fresh legs in attack when he replaced Moore late on and put himself about. 5\n<\/p>\n
\n OLLIE RATHBONE: Slotted straight into midfield to prevent late United rally. 5\n<\/p>\n
\n JAY RODRIGUEZ: Came on in added time for first appearance of the season after being added to the squad. 5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Although 3-1 down after 24 hours – an own goal had put Reds back on level terms –…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":657239,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8817],"tags":[748,393,4884,1620,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-657238","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sheffield","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-sheffield","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115789879023372649","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657238","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=657238"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657238\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/657239"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=657238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=657238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=657238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
