After waiting fifteen years, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s Welsh football team, Wrexham AFC, finally achieved their goal this weekend against Boreham Wood, securing the National League title and their instant promotion to English football League 2.

In the beginning of the game, Wrexham’s performance wasn’t fantastic. As they found themselves down early on the scoreboard. However, Elliot Lee’s goal gave them the edge before halftime.

Paul Mullin emerged as the hero by scoring twice in the second half to give the Red Dragons the victory.

A fantastic goal from the edge of the box by the player wearing number 10 gave the home team the lead on the scoreboard.

Mullin scored a second goal, his second of the game and 37th of the year, to give Wrexham the victory, consolidating his position as the team’s most effective striker.

Throwback about Rob McElhenney:

Rob McElhenney is an American actor, director, producer, and screenwriter. He was born on April 14, 1977, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

He is best known for co-creating and starring in the hit FX sitcom “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” which has been running since 2005.

McElhenney had a few acting jobs prior to the success of the program, but his main job in Los Angeles was as a waiter.
