His link play stood out: 10 successful passes in the final third, 64 touches and two attempts, with 29 passes completed and 24 accurate, plus one key pass.

That blend of bite and calm on the ball helped Wrexham progress through midfield, while his positioning reduced Foxes breaks and kept the game tilted their way.
