Manchester United will meet Wrexham this summer in the States, 27 years after their last competitive meeting which yielded seven goals and a glimpse into the changing of the guard at Old Trafford.
The two sides will meet in San Diego in July after a friendly fixture was confirmed this week. Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney starred alongside Sir Alex Ferguson in an announcement video. Back in 1995 the prospect of Hollywood actors owning Wrexham was about as far fetched as you could imagine while Ferguson was in the dug-out as the Dragons visited United.
It was the holders versus the underdogs. Wrexham were mid-table in the third tier while United had won the Premier League and the FA Cup the previous season.
