Originally I was heading for Coach Rangers until a text message persuaded me to re-route to Mappleton Playing Field instead. Wheel Inn began this Summer League game with ten men and conceded the opening goal after just 27 seconds. Their eleventh man soon took the field but Bradley were 7-0 up by the 22nd minute. The reigning champions looked set for a substanial victory until outfield player Jack Murphy took over in goal and he produced a series of fine saves, including one from the penalty spot.
