Match Recap

Andri Guðjohnsen single-handedly took this one apart. The Blackburn forward scored twice, breaking the deadlock just before the break and then killing off any Wrexham hopes with 11 minutes left, as Rovers moved up to 12th in the Championship with a 2-0 win. Wrexham, still chasing their first points off the back of a loss, slip to 14th despite arriving with form good enough to make this one look closer on paper, three wins from five against Blackburn's own. Neither side separated by much coming in, but Guðjohnsen made sure the gap showed on the scoreboard. League top scorer W. Lankshear watched from elsewhere on the table, his 16 goals untouched, while Blackburn's own forward quietly put himself in that conversation with a double that decided the game. Two goals, one player, zero reply from Wrexham, there's really only one story to watch back here. Catch both Guðjohnsen strikes, the 44th-minute opener and the 79th-minute killer, in the highlights below.
