Coates was sent away, and beat Fothergill only for Templeman to concede a corner. The kick was not brought to success, but another earner shortly afterwards resulted in Dixon opening the scoring with a shot from close range.
Keeping up the pressure, the Corps made ground after the kick-off and Wilson and Coates, with good pass- ing, got near enough to put Russell- in dieulty in clearing.
