Wrexham goalkeeper, Arthur Okonkwo sits down with Rog to relive his FA Cup heroics and gives a rare look inside the mindset of a goalkeeper during a high-pressure penalty shootout.

Arthur breaks down how he prepares mentally and physically for penalties, what’s written on his water bottle cheat sheet, and exactly what’s going through his mind as each kick is taken. From staying calm to embracing the moment, he explains why, in his own words, “I feel no pressure”.

This Week in Wrexham from the Men in Blazers Media Network is presented by our great friends of the pod STōK Cold Brew Coffee.
