Wrexham overturned a two-goal deficit to beat Salford 3-2 thanks to late goals from substitutes Steven Fletcher and Jordan Davies.

The Welsh side had a rough start to the game and trailed Salford 2-0 after 36 minutes, but Phil Parkinson's side were dominant in the second half and always looked capable of getting something from the match. In true Wrexham style, they turned the last five minutes of the match into pure chaos and managed to steal the win.

It took just 15 minutes for Salford to break the deadlock as Matt Smith out-muscled Hayden to get to a cross towards the back post and knocked in the opening goal. Salford doubled their lead later in the first half when Declan John drove into the Wrexham box and unleashed a shot. Okwonkwo blocked the shot but knocked it straight in front of Matthew Lund, who made no mistake with the finish.

It did not take long for Wrexham to get back into the game, however, as a corner was sent deep into the danger area where Elliott Lee came rushing in to head in. Mullen then carved out another chance for himself, knocking the ball through defender Luke Garbutt's legs to free up a shot, but he yet again sent it way off target.The hosts fought hard to try and find the equalising goal and had their fair share of good chances.
