The breakthrough arrived after 14 minutes. George Dobson’s measured diagonal pass released Ryan Longman, whose low, left-footed cross caused chaos in the home defence. Under pressure, Cameron Burgess inadvertently diverted the ball into his own net, handing Wrexham the lead and silencing the home crowd. Swansea responded with urgency, appealing in vain for a penalty when Ronald Pereira went down under a challenge from Callum Doyle. Burgess then had a chance to make amends, stabbing over from close range as the hosts searched for an equaliser before the break.
