In the fifth FA Cup round – a true Hollywood drama.

"Chelsea” finally defeated the Hollywood stars' club "Wrexham,” owned by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, with a score of 4:2 after extra time, as they compete in the Championship and are rapidly climbing the ranks of English football.

Match progress:

In the 18th minute, Sam Smith put Wrexham ahead.

In the 40th minute, the "status quo” was restored. Home defender Arthur Okonkwo accidentally scored an own goal.

In the 78th minute, Callum Doyle put the Welsh team ahead again.

Josh Acheampong equalized just 4 minutes later to take the match to extra time.

In added time, Wrexham lost a player – George Dobson was sent off for a serious foul.

In the 96th minute, Alejandro Garnacho scored the third goal for Chelsea.

In the 116th minute, perhaps the most crucial moment of the match occurred. After a VAR review, Lewis Brunt’s valid goal was overturned, which could have extended the penalty shootout.

In the end, everything was sealed by Joao Pedro's goal.
