Wrexham opened a four-game preseason U.S. tour with a 5-0 loss to Chelsea, which got two goals from Ian Maatsen and one each from Conor Gallagher, Christopher Nkunku and Ben Chilwell. The game drew 50,596 to Kenan Memorial Stadium. Actor Ryan Reynolds and co-owner Rob McElhenney have taken Wrexham from a struggling fifth-tier side to a fan favorite, largely through the globally-streamed docuseries “Welcome to Wrexham.” Chelsea, coming off a miserable 13th-place finish in the Premier League, was the 2021 European champion.

Hey Chelsea, Wrexham: Welcome to Chapel Hill!
