Ben Woodburn's injury-time winner gave a shadow Wales side a friendly victory against Trinidad and Tobago as international football returned to Wrexham.

Woodburn chested the ball over the line from close range to give Ryan Giggs' side the win against a side ranked 93rd in the world.

In preparation for Sunday's opening Euro 2020 qualifier against Slovakia, manager Giggs rested almost his entire first team as the Racecourse Ground hosted Wales for the first time since 2008.

The sweeping changes seemed to hinder the unfamiliar looking home side, who could barely muster any serious efforts on goal against their opponents as international football returned to north Wales.

Wales came close to falling behind early in the second half when Trinidad and Tobago's Aubrey David had a shot cleared off the line by Chris Gunter.

But Liverpool forward Woodburn's goal gave Giggs his fourth win from his 10 matches in charge.
