Full Report


Wrexham started the better of the two teams but for all the early possession it was Notts that had the first chance on goal.

The ball fell to last year’s top scorer Jason Lee but he just could not get any power or direction when he got the ball from a Mackenzie corner.

Wrexham did have more of the early pressure but the Notts defence held out but this was down to the final ball being poor.

Baynes had a good chance early but the effort was straight at Hoult in the Notts goal.

Mackenzie found Crow but the Notts striker missed a good chance and the keeper saved and then cleared for Nott`s third corner of the game.

Another ball from Mackenzie this time found Jarvis but again it`s cleared for a corner.

A Jarvis cross found crow and when the striker found Weston the ball is cleared for a 5th corner for the Magpies.

Butcher was the next to have a chance but his effort went well over.

Wrexham did have more of the ball in the first half and on 45minutes a shot went wide and the ref blew for half time.
