Torquay dented Wrexham’s National League promotion hopes with a 1-0 win at Plainmoor.

Asa Hall headed home the Gulls’ eighth-minute winner from an Armani Little free-kick.

Wrexham had almost opened the scoring but Ollie Palmer saw his third-minute effort blocked on the line.

Gulls goalkeeper Shaun MacDonald denied Luke Young and James Jones with splendid second-half stops.

Wrexham’s first defeat in four games drops them one spot to seventh, while Torquay climb a place to 11th.
