With the dust settling on an epic encounter at The Racecourse Ground on Monday, Notts County boss Luke Williams was on hand to reflect on the fixture ahead of another testing tie against Woking this weekend.
The Magpies were edged out in a five-goal thriller in north Wales, with goals from Paul Mullin, Jacob Mendy, and Elliot Lee cancelling out John Bostock's exquisite free-kick and Kyle Cameron's second-half header as Cedwyn Scott missed a penalty in injury time in a pulsating encounter.
In a game watched by almost 10,000 three days ago, the National League title swung in the favour of their Welsh challengers with just three games remaining of Notts' season.

Having been involved in battles further up the football pyramid, Williams explained that the atmosphere created by both sets of fans rivalled anything he has ever seen during his managerial career, further emphasising the importance of the travelling Magpies supporters.
"I was talking to some friends that were asking about the atmosphere because they were watching the game on the television," explained Williams.
"They could sense it and I have been involved in Championship football in some big stadiums with some big crowds, but it was more the energy that was coming from the stands.
"While we're on the subject, the Notts fans that travelled played a huge part in that.
"They were fantastic as they always are and it was like they wanted to join in with the atmosphere to be heard, but to also let Wrexham know there is another big club in town.
"That was a really impressive display from them and it is something that I will remember for a long time, I am sure - but to answer the question it was a fantastic atmosphere generated by all the supporters and certainly rivalled anything that I have been involved in."
Something that was analysed following the full-time whistle was the response of the Notts players having first conceded the equaliser, then twice finding themselves behind on Monday afternoon.
Despite the momentum and the crowd supposedly favouring the opposition, Williams' side ensured they remained level-headed and looked to halt the pressure and minimise the impact the hostile home crowd had on their team, maintaining pressure and looking to find a way back into the game.
After falling behind to a sweeping Wrexham move that was eventually finished by Mendy, the Magpies went close on two occasions before finding their equaliser - Ben Foster's slightest of touches denying Macaulay Langstaff from Cameron's cross into the area before Sam Austin stung the palms of the former Premier League keeper.
Williams explained that the response from his players was exactly what was needed in a game filled with high pressure, insisting his side must carry that on into the final three games of the season if they are to stand any chance of finishing in the one automatic promotion spot.
"That was something that was quite important to us because where we really have our ambitions and set them really high, we know that in order to achieve anything meaningful you have to be able to show anxiety control and you have to be able to overcome obstacles.
"I really appreciate that and I thoroughly agree because I thought the response was immaculate and exactly what any head coach would want from their players - to see them try to grab hold of the game quickly and play with a real enthusiasm and intensity, and try to build moves quickly.
"That was something that was pleasing for me and that is certainly an attitude we are going to have to have because all of the games appear to be becoming bigger and bigger and time is now running out and the games are all huge."
