Wrexham striker Jack Marriott was excited about the clash whilst Shrewsbury boss Paul Hurst called it a ‘massive’ game.
The game itself was all about Wrexham though as Ollie Palmer and Elliot Lee established a 2-0 lead before the break.
Marriott added number three after the break to hand Wrexham a 3-0 lead and bragging rights on derby day.
