Wrexham boss in 'cheating' row as Ryan Reynolds' men held to draw in National League title race

The league leaders were reduced to 10-men six minutes into the second half when Callum McFadzean was shown a straight red card after connecting with Walker when beaten by the goalkeeper to a loose ball.
