Phil Parkinson praised his Wrexham players for showing the “honesty and commitment” demanded of them in their 2–0 victory over Middlesbrough.

The Red Dragons bounced back from a dismal defeat to Sheffield United last week by producing their best performance of the season, and one of their finest under Parkinson. Wrexham not only defeated the early Championship leaders, but thoroughly deserved the victory with a complete display in which almost every player stood out.

The result was made even more remarkable by just how poor Wrexham had been in their previous outing, when Parkinson questioned the fighting spirit of his team. There could be no faulting his players’ desire at the Racecourse Ground midweek, with the manager believing the performance reflected exactly what owners Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds want to see.
