    TRY: St Helens 4-12 Warringtonpublished at 57 mins

    Theo Fages

    They've got a try! Game on at Wembley!

    Theo Fages nips past the tackle of Toby King and darts over from close range to score for St Helens.

    Lachlan Coote has missed the kick though! So Saints still need to score twice if they're going to win this final.

    St Helens get a lifeline as Declan Patton's kick goes out on the full.

    A fresh set starting 20 metres out from Warrington's line. What have you got left, Saints?

    St Helens 0-12 Warrington

    What's happened here? Warrington hooker Daryl Clark breaks through, kicks forward and Regan Grace knocks on in his own in-goal area.

    The resulting set of six comes to nothing, but you feel one more Warrington score might kill this game off.

    Warrington have been the nearly men of recent Challenge Cup finals, losing at Wembley in 2016 and 2018.

    Those Wolves players are determined not to suffer the same fate today.

    St Helens 0-12 Warrington

    A quick Theo Fages break gives St Helens some momentum and Saints get within close range, but Warrington defend it well and almost break clear themselves!

    Fages makes a last-ditch tackle to stop Ben Currie, who was set to run the length of the field.

    Breathless stuff! This final has really come to life now!

    Tom Lineham is denied.

    The winger made the slightest of contacts with Bryson Goodwin - as pictured above somewhere in super slow motion - before attempting to ground the ball and it's deemed to be obstruction.

    HT: St Helens 0-12 Warrington

    Jamie Jones-Buchanan
    Leeds Rhinos second-rower on BBC One

    I think it's been a story of story of two different substitutes, Joe Philbin has come on for Warrington and made a difference running a hard line behind the ruck where it's difficult to do.

    Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook has come on for St Helens and has taken the easy option, not the honest one and has cost his team.

    Everyone has their role to play even the bench, McCarthy-Scarsbrook has come on and he's not quite been in the right position, he's just not shown the energy.

    Anyone who’s ever watched a game of rugby league, especially in the modern era, will know this game is a long way from over yet.

    Saints are not runaway Super League leaders for nothing.

    They’ve had no luck in that first half and this game could be turned on its head in a trice.

    St Helens half-back Jonny Lomax told BBC One:

    "It's been a tough first half.

    "We need to make sure we keep travelling and working hard as a unit.

    "We’ve come up with a few too many errors and you can’t do that in these games.

    Asked if he was surprised the referee didn't review the early Morgan Knowles effort, Lomax replied: "100%."
