WREXHAM, Wales (AP) — Wrexham, the fourth-tier Welsh team co-owned by actor Ryan Reynolds, has taken a step toward another promotion by beating Mansfield 2-0. Talismanic forward Paul Mullin scored both goals. He finished a cross in the first half and converted a penalty in the 67th minute at the Racecourse Ground.
