Two wins for Wrexham on opening day of Soccer Tournament
For the third consecutive year, Wrexham are playing in the winner-takes-all, million-dollar seven-a-side event in Cary. Competing in Group F, Wrexham opened their campaign with a 3-1 victory over Real Athletico. Returning as a guest player for Wrexham for the third time, George Boyd hit the winning goal against debutants Athletico. Boyd - the tournament's all-time top goalscorer - was the Target Score Time hero once again as he sealed success. Former Reds' striker Jake Hyde had earlier scored two goals in normal time, either side of Athletico's equaliser. Wrexham built on that win by beating AFC Bournemouth 6-2 to progress to the knock-out stages. Boyd grabbed a brace - one was a goal of the tournament contender with a stunning volley - in the victory. Academy graduates Aaron James and Callum Edwards were on target, along with Sak Hassan, as Wrexham led 5-0 going into Target Score Time. Bournemouth struck twice in the extra period, but former Premier League champion Marc Albrighton got the all-important sixth goal. Wrexham face Pat McAfee's CONCAFA FC in the final group game today and will then take part in the knock-out stages for the third consecutive season. The tournament runs until Monday while Wrexham Red Dragons' women's side begin their campaign against Ultrain today before facing Drunken Moneys and Kansas City II tomorrow in their last two matches of the group stages.
