WATCH: Wrexham’s Goal of the Season already?! Jack Marriott scores outrageous volley from outside the box against Wycombe, leaving Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney stunned
Wrexham started their League One campaign with a win against Wycombe Wanderers, and Jack Marriott scored an outrageous volley in the first half.
Wrexham won 3-2 at SToK Cae Ras over Wycombe in their first League One game of the season as they try to attain back-to-back-to-back promotions and continue their hunt to reach the Premier League under the ownership of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. Phil Parkinson’s men took an early lead via Max Cleworth and Marriott doubled their lead with a thunderous volley from outside the box after chesting down a beautiful backheel by Ollie Palmer.

Speaking to the media after the match, Parkinson said: “That goal today, I don’t think you’ll see many better goals in the EFL. That was really good link-up play between the two strikers and an outstanding finish. You could sense our supporters warm to him not just because of his goal, but his work for the team. He was tireless and I’m very pleased for Jack.”
The Red Dragons will be happy with their first win of the season but will soon look towards their upcoming game against Sheffield United on August 13 in the first round of the Carabao Cup.
