Shock, euphoria, agony – Ryan Reynolds experienced all the emotions that the FA Cup has to offer at The Racecourse Ground on Sunday. Reynolds watched on as Wrexham, the club that he co-owns with fellow actor Rob McElhenney, played out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Sheffield United in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Wrexham were 3-2 up with just seconds to play, before a last-gasp equaliser from John Egan rescued a replay for the Championship side. With TV cameras capturing the range of facial expressions that Reynolds showed throughout the game, his wife Blake Lively watched on at home and couldn’t help but poke fun at her husband.

Wrexham denied by last-minute leveller

It was so nearly a historic day for Reynolds and Wrexham. 

Up against a side three divisions above them, they were clear underdogs ahead of the tie but were ultimately left feeling like they’d been robbed. 

Wrexham had fallen behind to a goal from Oli McBurnie, yet fought back to lead 2-1. Oliver Norwood then equalised, before Paul Mullin put the home side back in front.

​​"Ryan came into the dressing room and he was so proud of what he had seen," said Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson. 

"He was moved by the kind of performance today and he said some great words to the lads.
