Brisbane turn frantic defence into attack in an instant, racing into Warrington territory.

Wolves can't take advantage of a goal-line drop-out and Brisbane break quickly down the other end, but Jai Arrow is held up over the line.

Josh McGuire tries to carry the ball out of defence, charging straight at Warrington's Kevin Brown.

Brown's tackle is stronger than McGuire's grip though, the Brisbane player spilling the ball as he makes contact.

Unfortunately for Warrington, they can't take advantage of the opportunity, putting a kick out into touch.

Injured Warrington full-back Stefan Ratchford on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra: "We knew we wouldn't have it our own way for 80 minutes.

"We've been good in defence and we've cut some of the errors out with the ball."

Brilliant defending from Warrington sees Brad Dwyer charge down another Brisbane kick.

The Broncos concede a penalty inside their own half, but Warrington's attack is halted because Ryan Atkins has gone down injured.

The replays show he took a nasty blow to the face as he was tackled into a Brisbane defender's knee. He'll need a bit of treatment for that one.

How do Warrington respond from here?

They don't look panicked by that Brisbane try, but the Australians are looking strong at the start of the second period.

Wolves have more defending to do here as they concede a penalty about 10 metres inside their own half.

Nothing comes of Brisbane's first attack and Warrington respond well, a long, high kick from Declan Patton pinning the Australians deep.

Again, Broncos make good ground, but Wolves stay strong in defence inside their own half.

Warrington kick the second half off.

Brisbane are almost immediately back over the half-way line.

Remember, no English side has won against their Australian rivals since the World Club Challenge became the expanded World Club Series in 2015.

As the scores stand, we are just 40 minutes from seeing that run come to an end.

I can't remember watching too many better debuts than the one Kevin Brown has had for Warrington tonight.

The England international joined Wolves for an undisclosed fee from Widnes in December, and he already looks at home alongside Declan Patton at half-back.

A mention too for Tom Lineham, who was dropped for a long spell last season because of concerns over his work ethic.

The winger has since clawed his way back into Tony Smith's plans, and his late try could prove crucial come full-time.

Tomorrow, it's Wigan's turn. The Warriors face Cronulla Sharks in the World Club Challenge.

Wigan chairman Ian Lenagan on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra: "It's a great opportunity for Wigan and Super League generally. It's an international stage. It should be a great event."

Tony Smith will be thrilled with what he's seen from Warrington in the first half, but he'll know it might not be quite so easy in the final 40 minutes.

Brisbane were poor early on, but they've grown into the game as it's gone on.

Have they left themselves too much to do though?

You'd best bring some friends and your relatives if you're going to stop Tom Lineham from that distance.

Has Tom Lineham gone over for Warrington?

The referee thinks so, but he sends it up for review.

Injured Warrington full-back Stefan Ratchford on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra: "We've started well, we wanted a reaction from losing to Catalans last week and we've been pass-perfect.

"We knew Kevin Brown was going to be really good for us. He's shown that tonight, with the way he's controlled this game."

David Mead sees a bit of space down the Brisbane right and charges through it, but Tom Lineham gets back quickly to get a bit of pressure on.

His efforts pay off as well, as Mead is forced into an ambitious swinging pass back, which Darius Boyd can't cling on to.

There's just five minutes left in the half now.

Kevin Brown has been outstanding on his Warrington debut, his latest contribution a deep kick which pins Brisbane back close to their line.

It's turning into a really good contest as the half wears on.

It's very tight, but Josh McGuire relieves the pressure on Warrington's defence with a forward pass.

Excellent defence from Wolves there in the face of heavy pressure from the Australians.

Warrington defending close to their own line again, and Jack Hughes is penalised for stealing the ball.

Broncos sense a way back into the game...
