‘Stick that in the documentary’ – Ryan Reynolds’ Wrexham mercilessly trolled by Peterborough stars after Cup heartache

PETERBOROUGH stars trolled Wrexham’s Hollywood owners after their EFL Trophy penalty shootout win over Ryan Reynolds’ side.

The Posh booked their place in the final at Wembley with a dramatic 4-2 penalty shootout victory over Wrexham at the Stok Racecourse.

Peterborough beat Wrexham 4-2 on pens to reach the EFL Trophy final

Super-sub Bradley Ihionvien wasted little time in mocking Wrexham through his now-deleted post-match celebrations

Posh team-mates danced around to the tune of American boyband NSYNC’s 2000 hit ‘Bye Bye Bye’

Paul Mullin and Elliot Lee had their penalties saved to ensure Peterborough sealed a trip to Wembley

Wrexham were 2-0 up after 38 minutes following Mo Faal’s looping strike and George Dobson’s first goal for the Welsh club.

But Peterborough gave themselves hope when Malik Mothersille fired home the rebound after having his penalty saved by Arthur Okonkwo in the 72nd minute.

Wrexham fans were cheering ‘Que Sera’ before substitute Bradley Ihionvien scored from close range, after a long ball, in the first minute of added time to send the tie to a shootout.

Ihionvien, Ryan de Havilland, Harley Mills and captain Hector Kyprianou all scored from the spot.

While keeper Jed Steer saved efforts from veterans Paul Mullin and Elliot Lee to ensure Peterborough play Birmingham at Wembley.

And Ihionvien wasted little time in mocking Wrexham through his now-deleted post-match celebrations.

The 21-year-old forward sung to the tune of American boyband NSYNC’s 2000 hit ‘Bye Bye Bye’.

He and a team-mate were dancing along to the pop anthem before Ihionvien sang along: “Bye bye bye, bye Wrexham, bye Wrexham, sorry not sorry. Bye Wrexham, sorry not sorry. Have fun, watch us in Wembley!”

He added insult to injury by posting a sticker of Deadpool, the Marvel character played by Wrexham owner Reynolds, to his Instagram story.

And fans loved the merciless trolling, with one Birmingham City fan writing on X: “LOL! Stick that in your f***ing documentary”.

Darren Ferguson couldn’t believe the pandemonium when Peterborough equalised

Reynolds and co-owner actor Rob McElhenney documentary series ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ is well into it’s third season.

It follows the-behind-the scenes turmoil of bringing a club up the football ladder and the relationships within the local community.

The TV series has been a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, largely thanks to Wrexham’s Hollywood owners.

Wrexham missed on a chance to go toe-to-toe again with fellow League One heavyweights Birmingham, co-owned by NFL legend Tom Brady.

Birmingham beat Bradford City 2-1 in the first Vertu Trophy semi-final on Tuesday.

Instead Peterborough, who are in the midst of a relegation battle at the other end of the table, will go into the match as underdogs again.

Last year, they beat Wycombe Wanderers 2-1 in the final at Wembley.
