Wrexham remain top of the League One table after recovering from their first defeat of the season to beat Crawley Town 2-1.

Phil Parkinson's side were unbeaten in their first five games of the season but fell to a stalemate at Birmingham City on Monday in front of a star-studded crowd including owner Rob McElhenney, David Beckham and Tom Brady.

Elliott Lee and Max Cleworth restored Wrexham's winning streak to take three points at STōK Cae Ras.

Making two changes from the side that lost to Birmingham City, Wrexham took the lead in the first half despite Crawley creating plenty of chances to score.

Wrexham broke the deadlock in the 24th minute after Crawley's Will Swan shot wide.

Crawley retaliated in the second half when Armando Junior Quitirna set up Ronan Darcy's pass and fired past goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo.

After assisting Lee's goal, Cleworth secured victory for Wrexham 11 minutes from time.
