In one of the most iconic displays during Wrexham’s National League promotion campaign, Paul Mullin scored two late goals during stoppage time to help secure an enthralling 3-2 win over Stockport County at Edgeley Park on 2 April 2022.
After falling behind 2-1 at the start of stoppage time, chances of securing anything out of a highly important game were fading fast.
But Mullin soon turned matters around.
First, he equalised in the 91st minute with a goal of exceptional quality before going on to produce an even more impressive effort that sealed a stunning comeback which had the travelling Wrexham fans in shock.
The comeback was indeed a turning point in a season full of twists and turns. Although Wrexham were forced to endure another year in the National League, the last-minute heroics served to cement the reputation that Mullin earned of coming through for his team during crunch moments.
