Wrexham secured their first win of the Championship season with a commanding 3-0 victory over Millwall, a result that strengthens their ambitions of competing for promotion to the Premier League. After starting the season with draws against Cardiff and Watford, followed by a home loss to Birmingham, Wrexham bounced back impressively in south London. The match saw Zak Sturge inadvertently give Wrexham the lead when Issa Kaboré’s cross deflected off him into the Millwall net.
Kieffer Moore expanded Wrexham’s lead early in the second half, delivering a powerful shot from around 20 yards out. Jacques Ekomié then sealed the win with a close-range finish, capping off a dominant performance. This defeat added to Millwall’s recent woes, having conceded eight goals over their last two games despite starting the season with two clean-sheet victories. Their situation was further exacerbated by injuries to key players, striker Josh Coburn and midfielder Casper De Norre.
