Wrexham's FA Cup heartbreak shows Reynolds and McElhenney ... (The Athletic)

Having been denied the happy ending often demanded by viewers watching a sequel, Wrexham's attention now lays solely with the league.

His tactical understanding without the ball as well and, obviously, his goalscoring is key to anything we achieve.” “I wasn’t happy the way they’ve been as a club before the game (last night), eyeing up Spurs (who United now host in the last-16 on March 1). “Just a bit of cramp,” reassured Parkinson. If it is, Mullin, outstanding across both legs of this tie despite that saved penalty, will surely be the key. “I wasn’t happy with some of their players tonight,” said the 37-year-old striker and lifelong Sheffield United fan. And I really feel it has, because of the confidence the lads can take from these games. I think they thought we were just going to roll over when they got back in it. We have taken a very good team to the wire.” We will be ready for Wealdstone at the weekend. Still, the visiting hordes housed in the Bramall Lane end sang even at 2-1 down, just as they had all night for their team. There was to be no way back, Sander Berge instead settling matters with a third goal in the 96th minute. Or possibly when Arnold Schwarzenegger made good on his vow of “I’ll be back” in Terminator II.

It was one of the rare times that the games were available for wider audiences. It's a rare thing for the fourth round of the FA Cup to feature a game where the underdog losing is still big news.

REVIEW | Sheffield United 3-1 Wrexham (Wrexham AFC)

Last gasp goals from the Blades would once again crush Wrexham hearts, as they scored twice in stoppage time to overcome the Red Dragons.

To add to the late heartbreak, Wrexham were faced with another red and white stampede when pushing for a second equaliser. James Jones commenced the second half and the game was flipped on its head. Although having a pre-decided avenue for a second penalty, Mullin’s spot-kick would be saved by Adam Davies, after diving to his right. A notable one coming against Sharp in the 57th minute. Both teams entered half time with the score goalless, but the home side well and truly should have been a couple of goals ahead. With that being said, United’s multitude of efforts on goal did little to trouble Lainton.
