    HT: Hull FC 14-12 Castleford

    Now you may be out in the garden while following the live text, sweating away as you just sit there.

    So spare a thought for the guys out there today. This is what they have to deal with.

    Castleford captain Michael Shenton was just on BBC Two a moment ago and he revealed the ball was greasy in the sunshine, which may explain why we've seen so many handling errors in the first half.

  7. 'An atrocious start'published at 15:50 British Summer Time 18 June 2017

    HT: Hull FC 14-12 Castleford

    Castleford captain Michael Shenton on BBC Two:

    "That was an atrocious start from us, but we ground our way back in it.

    "We need to tidy up our game, keep completing sets and put Hull under pressure."

  8. Half-time: Hull FC 14-12 Castlefordpublished at 40 mins

    That was a brilliant half of rugby league.

    Hull FC were slightly the better side for much of the game, but two moments of magic from Ben Roberts and Luke Gale have kept Castleford in with a chance of reaching the semi-finals.

    Hull FC 12-12 Castleford

    Hull FC were well on top for the first 25 minutes, but Castleford have shown the quality that has taken them to the top of Super League to tie things up.

    Greg Minikin comes up with an error for the Tigers though, spilling a high-kick out over the dead-ball line for a goal-line drop-out.

    Gale's brilliant kick sets up Hardaker try for Castleford

    Sheer brilliance from Luke Gale.

    Gale looks towards the right-hand flank, before slipping a grubber kick back inside to his left, with Zak Hardaker diving onto the ball for the try.

    Gale makes the simple conversion to level the scores.

    Ben Roberts gets one back for Castleford

    Hull FC Sika Manu knocks the ball loose close to his own line, giving Castleford another set from inside the 10-metre line.

    Ben Roberts picks the ball up, the defence switches off, and Roberts jinks his way through the gaps to go over under the posts.

    Luke Gale kicks the extra two points.

    Hull FC 12-0 Castleford

    So close for Castleford!

    Greg Eden tries to bring in a pass with one hand with a clear run to the line ahead, but he can't quite bring the ball under control.

    The visitors are starting to ask a few questions of Hull's defence after an uncharacteristically poor start.

    Just for a moment, Castleford look like they might break through the Hull FC line as they flip the ball quickly out to the left.

    As soon as the gap is there though, another handling error hands possession back to their opponents, as Michael Shenton can't cling onto a pass.

    Hull FC 12-0 Castleford

    Danny Washbrook is held up over the line as Hull FC continue to put the pressure on.

    Castleford hold firm this time, as a well-timed tackle on Mark Minichiello jars the ball loose.

    Hull FC 12-0 Castleford

    Castleford's vaunted attacking game hasn't posed Hull too many problems so far.

    The hosts are dominating for territory, helped by a string of Tigers penalties.

    Another penalty, this time for leaving a foot in the ruck, gives Hull another opportunity to test the Castleford defence.

    Hull 12-0 Castleford

    So close for Hull FC again!

    Albert Kelly tries to dart through a gap for the third try, but he knocks the ball on as he tries to spin and dive for the line.

    Castleford look a little rattled here.

    Hull 12-0 Castleford

    How do the Super League leaders respond from here?

    Castleford are packed with quality, but an intercepted pass and a missed tackle on Fetuli Talanoa have them firmly on the back foot early on.

    A Tigers penalty gives the hosts another chance to start an attack from inside opposition territory.
