"He's tried to rectify his mistake and I think Dom [Hyam] could have headed the ball out, but he's kind of got over the top of him and they've almost got in each other's way. It's a high-profile mistake but Arthur's been outstanding. He's been a colossus of a goalkeeper, and he'll get every bit of support because he's won us a lot of points over the last few years."
"Okonkwo first failed to collect Ethan Galbraith's free kick as his punch looped into the air behind him and towards Ben Cabango. - Reynolds, Mac sell minority stake in Wrexham The Swansea captain sent a looping header towards goal, but Okonkwo was back in position to make an easy catch by the post. But he inexplicably dropped the ball and Adam Idah had the simple task of nudging it across the line."
Arthur Okonkwo failed to collect Ethan Galbraith's free kick as his punch looped behind him toward Ben Cabango, then dropped a routine catch that allowed Adam Idah to score a 90th-minute winner and hand Swansea a 2-1 Welsh derby victory. Wrexham had taken the lead when Cameron Burgess headed Ryan Longman's cross into his own net in the 14th minute, and Zan Vipotnik equalised after 70 minutes via a deflection off Dom Hyam. Okonkwo retained strong backing from teammates and the club despite the high-profile mistake. Wrexham's afternoon worsened when Lewis O'Brien suffered knee and shoulder injuries from Galbraith's challenge, raising questions about disciplinary action.
