Hollywood derby ends all square! Wrexham and Birmigham play out nervy 1-1 draw as Ollie Rathbone's long-range screamer is cancelled out to keep Tom Brady's boys sitting pretty on top of League One

League One

Birmingham

Leyton Orient

EFL Trophy

Wrexham

Peterborough

In a top-of-the-table clash at the League One summit, Wrexham had a ninth-minute lead. Ollie Palmer forced a turnover high up the pitch and Ollie Rathbone curled an exceptional 20-yard effort into the top corner.But Birmingham had an equaliser by the 20th minute, as Lyndon Dykes found himself free in the box and headed through a crowd.The game seemed to descend into a stodgy midfield battle thereafter, but James McClean came close on the hour, forcing an excellent save from Ryan Allsop with a close-range header from a corner.On the 68th minute, Wrexham rang the changes and introduced both Paul Mullin and Steven Fletcher, for Palmer and Elliott Lee, as they attempted to twist, instead of sticking. It was to no avail, as the two sides huffed and puffed, but were unable to find the required quality to win the game.Birmingham subsequently stay top of the table, with Wrexham in third.

TELL ME MORE

Rathbone scored a brilliant goal and gave Wrexham hope of a seismic victory early on. A brilliant curling effort from range, the Welshman has Premier League quality in his boots, and this was a goal to remind fans that he came through the ranks at United.

THE MVP

Palmer is struggling in League One. The striker played the pass for Rathbone's goal but it is hardly an assist, given the quality of the finish from range, and this is now 10 games without a goal from a centre-forward who looks to have run into something of a brick wall when it comes to the quality on show in the third tier.

THE BIG LOSER

Wrexham play Stevenage on Tuesday, while Birmingham take on Huddersfield on the same evening. As it stands, Birmingham go into the game top of the table.
