ARTHUR OKONKWO: Despite The Shrews having most of the best chances, the Reds goalkeeper didn’t really have a save to make. 6

ANTHONY FORDE: Looked a little off the pace and wasn’t a threat going forward. 6

MAX CLEWORTH: Showed indecision early on but grew into the game and can be well-pleased with his effort. 7

BEN TOZER: Distribution wasn’t the best but played his part in keeping a clean sheet. 6

TOM O’CONNOR: Made a great block in the first half and produced an even better moment in the opposition box to win the game. He loves scoring in the FA Cup. 7

JAMES McCLEAN: Had a ding-dong battle with Ryan Bowman and wound the Shrewsbury fans up all afternoon. 6

GEORGE EVANS: Showed real class in the middle of the park. Has real composure on the ball and was Reds star man. 8

ANDY CANNON: Gave his all as per normal before running out of gas in the second half 6.

ELLIOT LEE: Really quiet in the first half but grew into the game and was more instrumental after the break. 6

PAUL MULLIN: Didn’t really have a chance but, boy, did he put in a shift. Poor old Morgan Feeney will be having nightmares for days to come. 7

STEVEN FLETCHER: Starved of any real supply but when he did get the ball, his hold up play wasn’t the best. 5

SUBSTITUTES

SAM DALBY: Came on for Fletcher and played his role in the winning goal. 6

RYAN BARNETT: Made a winning return to his former club as a second half sub. 6

JAMES JONES: Gave Wrexham fresh legs in the middle of the park. 6

JORDAN DAVIES: Entered the fray in stoppage time. 6
