Wrexham's hopes of a historic fourth consecutive promotion were ended with a 2-2 draw against Middlesbrough at the SToK Cae Ras. The result, combined with Hull City's 2-1 win over Norwich, saw Wrexham finish seventh in the Sky Bet Championship, missing out on the play-offs.
Middlesbrough, who finished fifth, will face Southampton in the play-off semi-finals. For Wrexham, it was a disappointing end to a remarkable season, given they were playing National League football just three years ago.
The match started poorly for Wrexham, with Tommy Conway putting Boro ahead after four minutes. However, goals from Josh Windass and Sam Smith turned the game around, before David Strelec equalised just before half-time. Neither side could find a winner in the second half.
Wrexham pushed for a late winner, with substitutes Kieffer Moore and Nathan Broadhead introduced, but the goal never came. Smith failed to connect cleanly, Windass fired over, and Moore shot wildly as the home side's promotion dream slipped away.
