Andy Mangan gives Wrexham an early lead over Cambridge

Wrexham squandered a two-goal lead as Cambridge rescued a late draw to extend Dean Saunders' side's winless Blue Square Premier run to seven.

The hosts were 2-0 up inside 13 minutes thanks to striker Andy Mangan and a towering Christian Smith header from Luke Holden's deep corner.

But Cambridge scored two in the final seven minutes as Danny Crow converted a penalty after Mike Williams handled.

Then Adam Marriott's stoppage-time stunner earned the visitors a draw.
