Player Ratings
- Anthony Patterson: Safe hands on his home debut and didn’t have a chance with the goal. 7
- Zak Vynér: Sloppy in possession at times which allowed Watford to break but made one timely block. 6
- Dominic Hyam: Will be disappointed Luca Kjerrumgaard got in front of him for the goal but Wrexham defended well apart from that. 7
- Callum Doyle: Did his bit at the back in decent defensive display and picked out some superb passes, but nothing new there. 7
- Danny Imray: Wrexham’s biggest attacking threat, Imray got his first goal for the club and could have had two more. 8
- Ben Whiteman: Came in for his first start and broke up play to good effect as well as making good use of the ball. 7
- Lewis O’Brien: The midfielder put in another good shift and got attacks going as Wrexham pressed for a winner. 7
- George Thomason: Wrexham had more joy down the opposite wing but Thomason still hit the bar with a decent chance. 6
- Ollie Rathbone: Produced some good passes and crosses on a day when Wrexham had chances. 6
- Nathan Broadhead: Had claims for a first‑half penalty but was booked for diving, and Reds needed more from the winger. 6
- Kieffer Moore: Set up the equaliser and got in some good positions without looking like scoring himself. 6
Substitutes
- Sam Smith: Toiled away when he replaced Moore as lone striker. 5
- Bailey Cadamarteri: Deserves his chance, although he will be hoping for more. 5
- Ryan Longman: Fresh legs on the right wing for Imray. 5
- Matt James: His introduction meant O’Brien was used in a more advanced role. 5
- Max Cleworth: Brought on in added time. 4
