World Cup Report Card: Dennis Lawrence

Vs. SWEDEN: Big Den a huge part of T&T's heroic resistance in the face of wave after wave of Swedish attack. He coped surprisingly well with the likes of Henrik Larsson and Zlatan Imbrahimovic. Dennis probably picked up a knock towards the end, though, as he looked a little off the pace in the last quarter of an hour or so.

Vs. ENGLAND: Dennis played well for the vast majority of the game, and neutralised Crouch for 80-plus minutes. Although he was not blameless for the first goal, it would be harsh to deny him credit for a generally very strong performance under a great deal of pressure.

Vs. PARAGUAY: I've only seen the highlights of this game, so it's difficult to comment (not that that will stop me). Obviously, Dennis can't be blamed for his defensive colleague Brett Sancho's own goal, and responsibility for the second can probably be lain at the feet of Carlos Edwards.


Overall, the best ever performance by a Wrexham player at the World Cup. Of course.

Comments:
Is it true Dwight Yorke is coming to Wrexham?
