Ryan Reynolds reacts to Wrexham's FA Cup heroics

Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds reacted in disbelief on social media when he saw Wrexham beating Championship side Coventry in the FA Cup.

Reynolds is the co-owner of the National League club and they caused one of the upsets of the third round when they won 4-3 at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

Wrexham raced into a two-goal lead inside the first 20 minutes, promoting the Deadpool star to post a reaction on his Instagram story.

“What the f**k is happening?!” he posted accompanying a picture of the scoreboard at 0-2 to Wrexham.

Wrexham currently sit second in the National League, five points behind leaders Notts County but with two games in hand.

Boss Phil Parkinson paid tribute to Reynolds and fellow owner Rob McElhenney after the game, saying it is a ‘new era’ for the club.

“I’m so pleased with the boys,” Parkinson said. “It’s a great chapter in the story of Wrexham since the new owners have come in and I’m sure they will be overjoyed with what they’ve seen today.

“There’s a fantastic positive vibe in the town and behind the team, there’s a real buzz everywhere you go.

“It’s been great to be a part of that and today. The FA Cup, Wrexham, we’ve got a very good record in terms of some great wins over the years and wherever I go since I’ve been manager people speak to me about those special days.

“It was important for us today that we enjoyed the occasion but that we put in a performance that reflected how I know we can play – and I felt we did that.”

Wrexham have been drawn at home to Championship side Sheffield United in round four.
