Wrexham to Face Chelsea in FA Cup Fifth Round: Reynolds and Jackman React

omidbasir- Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman were taken aback by the draw for the fifth round of the FA Cup, which saw Wrexham paired with Chelsea. The match is set to be held at Stok Cae Ras, and both Marvel stars, recognized for their roles as Deadpool and Wolverine, may be present for the event.

Jackman was the first to notice Wrexham’s name being drawn, with Premier League giants Chelsea preparing to visit. In a tweet, Reynolds expressed his surprise with a simple, “Holy crap,” while his reaction in a video was considerably more animated.

Wrexham has experienced consecutive promotions and is now aiming for a spot in the Premier League. Their upcoming match against Chelsea will serve as an important measure of their progress. Currently, Wrexham sits eighth in the Championship, just one point shy of sixth-placed Derby County, which occupies the final playoff position.

Manager Phil Parkinson is confident in his team’s readiness for this challenge, stating to ESPN earlier this month: “Listen, is the structure of this club behind the scenes ready for the Premier League, and would there be an immense amount of work to take place if we get there? Of course, but wouldn’t it be great to have that chance? You’d probably say we weren’t ready for Division One, certainly not the Championship, but I think in football, you just keep evolving as you go along.”

Chelsea, under the guidance of Liam Rosenior, has been performing exceptionally well, remaining unbeaten in their last five matches. They have already dispatched Championship teams in the previous rounds, defeating Charlton Athletic 5-1 in the third round and Hull City 4-0 in the fourth. They will be aiming for a third consecutive victory next month. Hull City is somewhat comparable to Wrexham, currently sitting seven points above the Welsh side in the second tier.

This highly anticipated tie is currently scheduled for March 7, although this date may be adjusted if the match is chosen for live television broadcast, which is a strong possibility.
