Wrexham and Bolton Wanderers played out a hard-fought 0-0 draw at the Toughsheet Community Stadium on Sunday as both teams stayed unbeaten in League One.

Wrexham, who were looking to build on the momentum of their opening-day win over Wycombe Wanderers, struggled to maintain possession in the first half as the hosts dominated possession without creating significant chances.

Phil Parkinson's team grew into the contest in the second half, though Wrexham goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo was forced into the biggest save of the match when Dion Charles long-range effort deflected towards the top-right corner, only for the former Arsenal man to push it away.

Chances began to fall to the Welsh side, with Elliot Lee fizzing a right-footed effort over the bar before a blocked free-kick fell to James McClean. The former West Bromwich Albion and Stoke man was unable to control his attempt however, launching a volley into the stands.

In the end neither team was able to make the breakthrough, marking a rare stalemate for both teams. Bolton only played out one 0-0 draw in as they finished third in the division in 2023-24, while Wrexham managed just two in League Two.

The result leaves Wrexham eighth and Bolton ninth after two games of the league season.
