EFL Championship News
Socceroos midfielder Alex Robertson has been feted as "Kangaroo" by his Cardiff City teammates after he bounced back from scoring an own goal to lash home a sensational, stoppage-time winner in one of the Championship side's greatest comebacks.
Australian Alex Robertson rights the wrongs of an earlier own goal as he curls home a magnificent 94th-minute match-winner for Cardiff City.
Wrexham couldn't serve up a blockbuster for owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac but manager Phil Parkinson praised the Hollywood duo's input into a point that kept Wolves off the Championship summit.
Lewis O'Brien's first goal of the season earned Wrexham a 1-1 draw and prevented Wolves going top of the Championship, under the watching eye of Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac.
Wrexham's morale-boosting win over Championship leaders Middlesbrough was partially overshadowed by confirmation that striker Sam Smith will miss the rest of the season.
