Welsh football club Wrexham has thrilled its Hollywood owners by causing a big shock in the FA Cup on Sunday.
A 4-3 win over Coventry in the third round of the famous old competition was Wrexham’s best result since the team, which plays in English football’s fifth tier, was taken over by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in November 2020.
“I’m completely and totally speechless,” Reynolds, best known for starring in the “Deadpool” movies, tweeted to his 21 million followers. “What a club. What a town. What a win.”
McElhenney, an American actor and director who was the creator of TV show “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” was just as stunned.
