Bopping into soccer season

In Okanagan Men’s Over 35 Soccer League play last Monday night, Salmon Arm brushed back Vernon Big O Tire 2-1 at Marshall Fields in Vernon despite getting outshot.

 

Vernon midfielder Brad Conlin gave the Tiremen a 1-0 lead at the break, while Wolfgang Bopp, on a penalty kick, and Andrew Whiston, replied in the second half for Salmon Arm.

A Vernon striker was stopped on three breakaways, including one just before the final whistle.
