Ryan Reynolds threatens to break Ben Foster's ribs after late drama in Wrexham win

After Ben Foster pulled off a heroic stoppage-time penalty save to secure a crucial 3-2 win for Wrexham over promotion rivals Notts County, Ryan Reynolds joked he was going to hug the former England goalkeeper so hard he would break his ribs.

Foster came out of retirement last month to rejoin Wrexham, having previously played there on loan in 2005. The 40-year-old signed a short-term deal to try and help Wrexham push for promotion from the National League.

The club has not played in the English Football League since 2008, but are flying high under the ownership of Hollywood stars Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. Wrexham and Notts County have dominated the National League this season, but only one side can achieve automatic promotion to League Two.
