The teams scored two goals and no goals, with two goals across the match. Blackburn supplied all the scoring; Wrexham finished without a goal, leaving the result to turn on the home side’s ability to convert its chances into goals.

The scoring was concentrated in one player’s contribution. Andri Guðjohnsen supplied two goals, with the opening finish putting Blackburn in front and the later goal extending the lead. The first strike had already given the home side an interval advantage; the second made its position more commanding, and Wrexham did not find a reply.

Standout performers

A. Guðjohnsen was Blackburn’s best-rated player, with a rating of 8.9 and 2 goals. His contribution went beyond the rating: he provided the breakthrough and then added the finish that completed the scoring for Blackburn.

For Wrexham, J. Ekomié earned the side’s best rating, 6.9. The visitors’ leading-rated player could not change a match in which his side failed to score, while Blackburn’s standout performer supplied two goals.
