The Welsh side still has plenty to look forward to, especially this summer in the United States
Wrexham's dream of FA Cup glory, albeit one that bordered on the line of unrealistic, is over ... for this season. The Welsh club, growing in popularity under the ownership of Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney and featuring on docuseries "Welcome to Wrexham," were eliminated from the competition on Tuesday in their fourth-round replay, falling to Sheffield United 3-1 on a pair of stoppage-time goals.
But bowing out of the most important domestic tournament in the United Kingdom is no poor achievement. They nearly made it to the last 16, which can be viewed as a sign that this team is on the way up, despite being a long ways from where they want to be.
"I could not be more proud of those men than I am right now. They gave it absolutely everything," McElhenney wrote on Twitter after the match. "So proud of these boys. And the 4,000-plus away supporters who gave it all," Reynolds tweeted.
