Rob McElhenney swaps Wrexham for Wales on 'nice Sunday'

The match played in Cardiff last night (Sunday, June 5), saw Gareth Bale's deflected free-kick send Wales to Qatar 2022.

That will be the national team's first appearance at a World Cup since taking part in Sweden way back in 1958.

It was also the day that Wrexham could have been playing in the National League play-off final - but Grimsby Town put an end to that dream with a dramatic 5-4 win at the Racecourse in the semi-final.

That meant that the Reds' co-owner Rob McElhenney could switch his attention to Wales' huge match instead and he seemingly did just that.

I’d rather be watching @Wrexham_AFC in the final but watching Wales in a World Cup qualifier still makes for a nice Sunday. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 ⚽️ Cymru am byth!!!!

The 'It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia' star was one of the many supporters backing Rob Page and his team on Sunday.

And the 1-0 victory went down as one of the most historic in Welsh footballing history.

A World Cup group including USA, Iran and old rivals and neighbours England now awaits Wales in Qatar at the end of this year.
