WREXHAM produced a five-star performance as Phil Parkinson's men responded brilliantly to a first defeat of the National League season.

Beaten 2-0 at Chesterfield in midweek, the Reds bounced back by registering a 5-0 victory over Maidstone at The Racecourse.

Paul Mullin, Jordan Davies and an own goal had Wrexham 3-0 up at half-time in front of another bumper crowd, with co-chairmen Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney also in attendance.

Mullin got the other two goals in the second half to complete his first ever Wrexham hat-trick and there would have been no complaints if Parkinson's men won by a bigger margin having been a huge attacking threat all afternoon and created a host of chances.

Here's how the players rated:

MARK HOWARD: Didn’t have too many saves to make but did what was required of him and kept a clean sheet. 7

ANTHONY FORDE: Back in the side and was spent more time higher up the pitch supporting attacks. 7

JACOB MENDY: Effective down the left flank. 7

JAMES JONES: Won possession for Wrexham in midfield and linked up well with his team-mates. 7

LUKE YOUNG: The captain ran the show on his return to the side and showed how important he is to the team. 9

JORDAN DAVIES: Took his goal well and came close to adding to his tally. 7

PAUL MULLIN: Didn’t let missed chances affect him as he went onto score a well-taken hat-trick. 8

OLLIE PALMER: Superb hold-up play and worked hard in attack. 7
