Salford Red Devils edge out Wakefield Trinity Wildcats in entertaining affair

Salford Red Devils show real determination to hold off Wakefield Trinity Wildcats and claim a 34-26 victory at the AJ Bell Stadium.

Salford Red Devils are up and running in the Super 8s thanks to a thrilling 34-26 victory over Wakefield Trinity Wildcats.

Josh Griffin touched down twice inside the opening 20 minutes to open up a strong lead for the hosts, which brother George soon added to by crossing over himself.

The contest was back alive when Jacob Miller found the try-line either side of the interval, before Danny Washbrook helped complete the comeback 48 minutes in.

A thrilling remainder to the match ensued, with Australian forward Cory Paterson and Reece Lyne sharing a try apiece within the space of three minutes.

Lee Smith then converted to put Wakefield two points to the good, while he was successful from a penalty to then double that advantage.

With 10 minutes left to play, Rangi Chase raced away and crossed under the posts, which Griffin converted to set up a tense conclusion.

After seeing the game swing back in their favour, the Red Devils then made sure of the win thanks to Paterson's second of the afternoon.
