WREXHAM'S three top goalscorers all got on the scoresheet as the Reds beat Barnet 6-0 to register an eighth home win in a row.

Ollie Palmer, leading marksman Paul Mullin and Jordan Davies all found the back of the net in the first half as Wrexham opened up a three-nil lead at The Racecourse.

It was as convincing as the scoreline suggests at the break as Phil Parkinson's side dominated against a poor Bees side who were there for the taking.

Wrexham had been clinical and they kept probing in the second half, with Ben Tozer, Reece Hall-Johnson and substitute Liam McAlinden also finding the back of the net to complete a thoroughly deserved win.

Victory, which extends the unbeaten run to 12 matches, enabled Wrexham to close the gap on leaders National League leaders Stockport County who the Reds beat 2-0 on Saturday to reach the FA Trophy final next month.

The Reds climbed above Halifax into second place and are now eight points behind Stockport, and both sides have nine games left in the race for the title.

Wrexham will aim to continue their superb form at home to Eastleigh on Saturday.

It was no surprise to see Parkinson name the same side that started Saturday's brilliant win against Stockport which secured Wrexham's place in the Trophy final against Bromley on May 22..

This was the fourth game in a row that the Reds' boss named an unchanged starting XI with Wrexham in a rich vein of form.

Wrexham won a couple of early corners which came to nothing.

Neither side had created a goalscoring chance when Wrexham took the lead in the 15th minute.

Palmer raced onto a long ball over the top and got the better of centre-back Greenidge in the area before slotting past keeper Jake Askew.

Another opportunity quickly arrived when Wrexham launched another attack, Davies picking up a loose ball and seeing his low drive saved by Askew.

Luke Young also fired wide as the Reds continued to press and Davies only just cleared the crossbar with a free-kick after he was fouled just outside the 18-yard box.

But Wrexham's pressure paid off as they made it 2-0 after 28 minutes.

Aaron Hayden brought a brilliant save out of Askew after meeting Tozer's throw-in but Mullin smashed the ball home from close range for his 22nd goal of the season.

Reece Grego-Cox was well off target with Barnet's first attempt of the game but Wrexham were soon back on the offensive and Palmer' goalbound shot from outside the area deflected off a defender for another corner.

However, Wrexham grabbed a third goal in the 45th minute.

Mullin played a superb ball into Palmer who fed Davies and the midfielder turned in the box before beating Askew.

Barnet strike the crossbar through Ephron Mason-Clark early in the second half but Wrexham went straight down the other end and Mullin brought a good save out of Askew.

But Wrexham made it 4-0 from the resulting corner on 50 minutes.

Luke Young sent in the flag-kick and Tozer took a touch before firing into the back of the net for his first ever Reds' goal!

Wrexham weren't done and Askew pulled off a superb save to deny Palmer while Parkinson made his first change after 66 minutes with Liam McAlinden replacing Davies.

And McAlinden had a hand in the fifth goal which arrived on 74 minutes.

The midfielder sent in a cross that was converted by Hall-Johnson.

Three points had been secured and Parkinson immediately took off Mullin and Palmer, bringing on Dan Jarvis and Dior Angus.

McAlinden fired wide but the midfielder made no mistake four minutes from time.

After his shot was saved by Askew, McAlinden put away the rebound to make it 6-0 and complete the scoring as Wrexham romped to three points.
