Parkinson's double frustration as Wrexham denied

Phil Parkinson bemoans his team's lack of ruthlessness – and the amount of stoppage time at the end – after a 98th-minute equaliser denies Wrexham victory at Cardiff.

Parkinson's double frustration as Wrexham denied

Phil Parkinson lamented his Wrexham team's lack of precision and the excessive stoppage time at the end of their 98th-minute equaliser, which prevented them from securing a Welsh derby victory against Cardiff City. The Championship side had been on track for a hard-fought win after Kieffer Moore's third-minute goal at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Despite several chances to extend their lead, including hitting the woodwork, Wrexham ultimately fell short when Rubin Colwill scored a free-kick in the final moments of the game. Parkinson expressed his team's frustration, stating that they had created numerous opportunities to seal the victory but failed to capitalize on them, and that the officials' decision on added time was unclear.

He emphasized that cheap free-kicks at this level can lead to costly consequences, and that staying composed in that moment could have resulted in a three-point win for Wrexham.
