"With the sides separated by just a point and hovering on the edge of the play-off places, both knew a win could ignite a promotion push heading into the festive period. Wrexham were keen to respond after suffering their first league defeat in nine matches at Hull in midweek, but it was Watford who threatened early as Marc Bola's low strike flashed across the face of goal in the second minute."
"That miss proved costly a minute later as Windass collected a Matty James through ball and fired past Egil Selvik to put the Red Dragons ahead, much to the delight of Reynolds and Mac, whose actress wife Kaitlin Olson was also in attendance. Their joy was short-lived, however, as Doumbia levelled nine minutes later with a superb strike off the underside of the crossbar with the aid of a deflection."
Wrexham drew 2-2 with Watford after Oliver Rathbone scored a stoppage-time equaliser to deny the visitors victory. Josh Windass put Wrexham ahead from a Matty James through ball, but Mamadou Doumbia levelled with a strike that hit the underside of the crossbar. Othmane Maamma put Watford ahead before half-time with a close-range finish, and Wrexham hit the bar from a corner. Wrexham had been seeking a response after a recent defeat at Hull. Ryan Reynolds, Rob Mac and Kaitlin Olson were among those in attendance as both sides eyed a promotion push.
