Christopher Nkunku had opened the scoring for Chelsea, while Lesley Ugochukwu rounded it off eight minutes from time.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>There was no holding back by either team, with the tone being set inside the opening seconds. A heavy touch from Colwill saw McClean step in and give the Blues defender a slight nudge, which did not go down well. Colwill grabbed McClean by the collar as they shoved one another towards the touchline.</p>

As it was a pre-season game, no cards were handed out by the match referee – with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-warned-wrexham-must-double-squad-value-reach-championship-finance-expert-ffp-psr-risks/blt3373656e57e0eaf2" target="_blank">Red Dragons co-owner Rob McElhenney</a> watching on from the stands.</p>
