James McClean of Wrexham made fun of Paul Mullin, his teammate, for not finishing his first cross before the striker scored the rebound.
Consequently, what happened?
Following the match, McClean was questioned about his experience playing with Paul Mullin and Steven Fletcher, two strikers. The Wrexham wide player acknowledged his satisfaction at being a member of a dressing room full of strong characters and hailed his teammates’ amazing finishing ability. The Red Dragons led 0-0 at the half and won 2-0 thanks to a solid second half performance.
MCCLEAN’S QUOTES
When asked about Mullin’s goal, which required two cherry bites to score, McClean chuckled and said, “Yeah, he apologized, and rightfully so, for not helping me score the first one. Being able to place the ball in the box and possess the talent within the box is beneficial for wide players.”
