ELLIOT LEE'S last-gasp winner secured a 2-1 victory as Wrexham produced a below-par performance against Sutton United at The Raceccourse.

Paul Mullin gave Phil Parkinson's men the ideal start when he scoring with a superb strike after just 14 minutes but the Reds failed to build on it.

Bottom of the table Sutton came out fired up in the second half and grabbed an equaliser but Wrexham put the pressure on late in the game and leading scorer Lee came off the bench to net his ninth goal of the season with a brilliant rocket shot from just outside the area.

Victory extended the unbeaten run to seven games in all competitions and enabled Wrexham to climb up to third in League Two, five points off top spot.
