Owen Moffat does superbly to twist inside the Wrexham box before gliding past another defender but his shot at the end lets him down, skewing wide of the upright.

Stuart Moore makes an important save on this occasion, pushing Kai Evans’ piledriver from the edge of the box over the bar.
28 - Wide again
Ryan Austin directs a header towards goal from a threatening corner but Stuart Moore watches it wide.
34 - Goal Wrexham (2-0)
Jake Bickerstaff is given too much time and space to turn in the box before rifling a low shot across Moore.
Pool have really stepped off it since the first goal.

Donovan Lescott's side-footed shot takes a heavy deflection to wrongfoot the Wrexham goalkeeper.
HALF TIME
HT: Wrexham 2-1 Blackpool
Stephen Dobbie’s side were in complete control early on but lost their way for a while after the hosts took the lead in soft circumstances.
Back in it thanks to Donovan Lescott’s deflected effort.
48 - Change
Owen Moffat is substituted. Not sure if he’s picked up a knock or not, but Joe Strawn replaces him.
53 - Over
A deep corner into the Blackpool box misses everyone before being side footed over by Reece Hall-Johnson. Let-off for Pool there.
