Wigan 20 – 16 Salford

Bevan French’s two tries and one from Toby King ensured the Warriors triumphed in a see-saw clash at the DW Stadium; Harry Smith kicked three conversions and a penalty; the Red Devils’ scores came via two tries from Ken Sio, and two conversions and two penalties from Marc Sneyd

Bevan French’s double and Toby King’s try seven minutes from time saw Wigan Warriors snatch a 20-16 victory in a topsy-turvy Betfred Super League clash with Salford Red Devils on Friday.

Harry Smith had kicked the Warriors in front with an early penalty, but Ken Sio’s converted try saw the Red Devils edge in front before the home side hit back with a converted score of their own from French.

Marc Sneyd’s penalty ensured Salford went into half-time level at 8-8, and they retook the lead after surviving an early spell of pressure from Wigan following the restart thanks to winger Sio’s second and another Sneyd penalty.

French, switched to full-back after starting on the wing, got the Warriors back in the contest as the match moved into the final 10 minutes though and the win was secured three minutes later as centre King finished another flowing attack.
