Wrexham get lucky after Arthur Okonkwo blunder v MK Dons
Phill Parkinson’s side came away with a point from the Stadium MK
Wrexham missed an opportunity to close the gap on the League Two leaders as the points were shared away at MK Dons.
The fixture at Stadium:MK was not without its controversy, however, with Phil Parkinson’s side again involved in another incident involving a goal not standing against their opposition.
Their win over Notts County was questioned after David McGoldrick’s second-half strike was disallowed for handball, and the Welsh club have seemingly got away with another decision as they look to achieve back-to-back promotions this term.
Arthur Okonkwo is a very lucky man
The on-loan Arsenal keeper has been in fine form for the League Two side this season, but even he will know he was lucky to get away with an error against MK Dons.
Two goals in four first-half minutes from Dan Kemp and James McClean set the contest alight, but the most controversial moment of a fiery contest came after an hour.
A short corner by the home side eventually found its way to Joe Tomlinson, whose shot was spilled by the Wrexham keeper and seemingly over the line, however, referee Sam Purkiss waved play on, with the aftermath of the decision seeing Dons captain Dean Lewington being sent off for his protests on his 900th appearance for the club.
