It's a big game says Smith

Denys Smith, the Wrexham manager, will be hoping for more of the same from Juan Ugarte, his Basque striker, this evening as the North Wales club bid to reach a two-legged northern final against either Tranmere Rovers or Oldham Athletic. Ugarte scored four goals last Saturday.



"It's a big game, certainly," he told the Daily Post. "You don't get a second bite in cup games, we've already come a long way in the competition and there's the prize of an interesting final, which will be good for the club.



"But Hereford gave us a hard pre-season game and, of course, they turned us over in the FA Cup a couple of years ago, so we'll have to work hard to get the result. They have been going well this season, despite a blip of late, so we can't afford to take anything for granted."



Meanwhile Ben Foster, who signed a loan deal yesterday at the Racecourse, and could be in goal tonight for Wrexham commented: "I've been playing mostly reserve team football but I've just signed an extension to my contract at Stoke and this is a big chance for me. I'm looking forward to playing at Hereford because it's a massive game for Wrexham, given what is at stake."
