"Phil Parkinson felt his Wrexham side could have taken all three points after they were denied a maiden home victory in the Championship in their 1-1 draw with Derby. Lewis O'Brien's second-half strike would have had the supporters thinking a first home win in the second tier this season was on the cards. But Ben Brereton Díaz levelled soon afterwards to record his first goal for Derby."
"We scored an outstanding goal too and, at that point, I thought we had Derby where we wanted them. We could have done better for their goal, but our quality of performance was really good. Derby are a direct team, but we stood strong against that. We are improving as a team and learning about the Championship from each game."
Wrexham were held to a 1-1 draw by Derby, with Lewis O'Brien scoring a second-half strike and Ben Brereton Díaz levelling for Derby. Manager Phil Parkinson described the performance as strong and expressed disappointment at not winning while praising the crowd. Wrexham defended well against Derby's direct approach and showed signs of improvement and learning in the Championship. Derby had an early opportunity from a long kick flicked to Patrick Agyemang, and Wrexham missed set-piece and headed chances. Windass had a long-range shot saved and goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo produced an outstanding double save.
