'A reckless challenge': Wrexham's Paul Mullin suffers punctured lung in pre-season game – video

Wrexham striker Paul Mullin was rushed to hospital with a punctured lung after a collision with Manchester United goalkeeper Nathan Bishop in a pre-season friendly. Mullin was attempting a header when Bishop challenged him just outside the box in the 11th minute and the two went down. Mullin immediately grabbed his head with his right hand and his left hip with his left hand, and was clearly in pain. He was down for about seven minutes. A stretcher and a cart were sent out and Mullin was surrounded by medical personnel, but he eventually got up and slowly walked off with assistance while wearing an oxygen mask. Manager Phil Parkinson said he was 'fuming' and called it a 'clumsy, reckless challenge'. He added that the team would support Mullin to get him back on the pitch as soon as possible.
