FA Trophy final: Wrexham 1-1 Grimsby (4-1 on penalties)

It’s getting hard to keep up with an almost unprecedented level of success for Welsh sport, with football, rugby and cycling in Wales all competing to trump the others.

But, after yesterday’s FA Trophy win at Wembley for Wrexham, football could have the upper hand again.

Andy Morrell’s side currently sit third in the Football Conference (one place ahead of Welsh rivals Newport County), but yesterday’s shoot-out win over Grimsby in front of more than 35,000 people at the home of English football ensures that, following Swansea City’s 5-0 win over Bradford City in the League Cup final last month, every English trophy won so far this season has gone to a Welsh club.

With Newport and Wrexham challenging at the top of the Conference, and Swansea City settling into the top half of the Premier League – and with their sights set on a European campaign next season – this season would already be a success for Welsh football even without the national side’s 2-1 win in Scotland.

Oh, and Cardiff City, who sit on top of the Championship, with a nine-point automatic promotion cushion. Barring a spectacular (though, for Cardiff, hardly atypical) late-season collapse – if Cardiff were to reach the play-off final and make it a hat-trick of Welsh teams at Wembley this season, it would be very disappointing from their point of view – it could turn into just about the perfect season for Welsh football.
