Wrexham 3-2 Coventry City: Post-match review, Stats, Key moments

The turning point of the match came in the second half when Wrexham scored three crucial goals. The first, in the 60th minute, levelled the score after Coventry had taken the lead in the 22nd minute. This goal sparked a comeback, with Wrexham taking the lead in the 69th minute and sealing the victory with a late goal in the 83rd minute. These moments were pivotal, showcasing Wrexham's ability to capitalise on opportunities and maintain pressure on their opponents.

Coventry's early goal in the 22nd minute set the tone for a competitive match, but their late response in the 88th minute was not enough to salvage a point. The timing of Wrexham's goals, particularly the one in the 83rd minute, was crucial in securing the win. Coventry's inability to hold onto their lead and respond effectively to Wrexham's scoring spree ultimately cost them the match.

Wrexham lined up in a 3-4-1-2 formation, with Arthur Okonkwo in goal and a back three of Max Cleworth, Dan Scarr, and Dominic Hyam. The midfield was anchored by Ben Sheaf and Matty James, with Issa Kaboré and Liberato Cacace providing width. Lewis O'Brien played just behind the strikers, Kieffer Moore and Josh Windass. The lineup showed no surprises, but the impact of Moore's performance was undeniable, as he scored all three goals. The substitutions made by Wrexham were effective in maintaining their momentum and securing the win.

Coventry City opted for a 4-4-2 formation, with Carl Rushworth between the posts and a back four of Kaine Kesler-Hayden, Luke Woolfenden, Liam Kitching, and Jake Bidwell. The midfield was composed of Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, Jamie Allen, Matt Grimes, and Ephron Mason-Clark, with Haji Wright and Brandon Thomas-Asante leading the attack. The lineup was as expected, but the team struggled to maintain their lead and respond to Wrexham's late surge. The four substitutions made by Coventry were unable to change the course of the game, highlighting the need for more impactful changes in future matches.

Kieffer Moore is Coral's Man of the Match, and his performance was nothing short of exceptional. Scoring all three goals for Wrexham, Moore demonstrated his clinical finishing and importance to the team's attack. Despite not registering any assists or key passes, his hat-trick was the decisive factor in securing the victory, making him a clear standout in the match.
