C # Http Web Request , Fire and forget an API call

In my WCF provider, I must make a call to an API, in which I wanted to do a fireplace and neglect implementation. And if possible just seize the errors if any. (that is nice too, if not a choice)

I'm making plans to do the following implementation, what are the issues it can result in? Via doing the subsequent implementation goes to go away a huge quantity of open connections. Or what might be the difficulty? Please help in information how in a higher manner this may be implemented.

void SendRequest(inputs)

{

    HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(URL);

    request.Method = "POST";

    request.ContentType = "application/xml";

    byte[] requestBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(inputXML);

    using (Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream())

    {

        requestStream.Write(requestBytes, 0, requestBytes.Length);

    }

    request.GetResponseAsync();

} 

Main()

{ 

    try

        SendRequest(inputs);

    catch ex

        log ex;

}
