Parkinson: Wrexham Could Have Triumphed Over Billionaire Chelsea.

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson feels his team should have defeated the "billion-pound" Chelsea during their pre-season tour of North America.

The newly promoted League One team Wrexham nearly pulled off an upset against Premier League giants Chelsea, settling for a 2-2 draw in front of 32,724 fans at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
