Notts County overtake Wrexham as Macaulay Langstaff sets National League record
Posted Saturday, April 08, 2023 by PA
Notts County took over top spot from Wrexham as Macaulay Langstaff set a new National League goalscoring record in their 3-0 victory over Wealdstone.
Langstaff scored his 41st goal of season – the most in a single campaign since the league was rebranded in 2015 – as County reached 100 points for the campaign with four games remaining.
Things got even better for the Magpies as news filtered in of Wrexham’s 3-1 defeat at Halifax.
County, who have played a game more than Wrexham, are top on goal difference ahead of the sides’ meeting in Wales on Monday.
Sam Austin gave them an eighth-minute lead against mid-table Wealdstone, curling home off the far post after Langstaff had capitalised on an error.
Langstaff’s landmark came on the hour after he scampered on to goalkeeper Archie Mair’s clearance.
Francis Vincent wrapped up the win after 76 minutes, leaving County with a better goal difference of three than Wrexham.
