Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson bemoaned his team's lack of ruthlessness and the excessive amount of stoppage time following a 98th-minute equalizer that denied them a victory over Cardiff City. Despite a dominant performance, Wrexham's Welsh derby ended in frustration at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Wrexham appeared to be on course to begin their new Championship campaign with a hard-fought win after Kieffer Moore scored a third-minute goal. However, the side missed several chances to extend their lead and twice hit the woodwork, failing to capitalize on their dominance throughout the match.

Ultimately, the hosts secured a point when Rubin Colwill smashed home a free-kick in the final act of the game. Parkinson expressed his frustration, stating that while they carried greater threat than their hosts, they failed to kill the game off. "We knew we could give Cardiff problems and time and time again we did," Parkinson noted, lamenting that the game should have been out of sight.
