Overview
- Wrexham led 2-0 through Liberato Cacace and Oliver Rathbone and restored a 3-1 cushion via Dominic Hyam before Callum Hudson-Odoi’s late brace forced extra time at 3-3.
- With no replays this season, extra time ended scoreless and a 4-3 shootout decided the tie, as Arthur Okonkwo saved from Igor Jesus and Omari Hutchinson.
- The victory is Wrexham’s first FA Cup win over top-flight opposition in 26 years and adds to the club’s rapid rise under Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
- Nottingham Forest made eight changes to their starting lineup, and manager Sean Dyche condemned an unacceptable first-half performance.
- The fourth-round draw is scheduled for Monday at Anfield, when Wrexham will learn their next opponent.
