It's difficult to understate what an achievement this will be if Salford reach the Grand Final.

They've been perennial strugglers in Super League for several years. They were even a few minutes away from being relegated in 2016.

And now another Wigan pass goes astray! George Williams the guilty party this time. Salford back with the ball.

Salford coach Ian Watson remains poker-faced on the touchline. Inside, he must be beaming with his team's display. They've been absolutely exceptional.

A combination of Sam Powell and Liam Byrne takes down Kris Welham illegally.

Krisnan Inu does the business again with the boot. Six out of six for him.

Salford lead by 20 points. Twenty.

Liam Farrell has two runners outside him but his pass to the left splits them both and dribbles out of play.

Wigan's night summed up in one play.

This lot are having a good night...

Wonderful defence from Salford! Wigan started that set about 15 metres out but they couldn't find a way through.

Salford kept Castleford at bay last week and haven't been breached by Wigan tonight.

Add in the final stages of their most recent visit to the DW Stadium, and they have gone for almost two full games without conceding a point. Wigan need 19 of them in the next 30-odd minutes.

The home fans roar their team on as they get a penalty with good field position to attack.

This is now for Salford to lose, really.

They are well and truly in control. It was a fantastic first-half performance and they have started the second half much the brighter side. This is absolutely brilliant.

Is Joey Lussick over? Are Salford one step closer to the Grand Final?!

Salford's first set of six in the second half ends a couple of metres from Wigan's try line, with the dangerous Niall Evalds tackled on the last.

We're under way again at the DW Stadium.

Can Wigan find a way back, or will Salford reach the Grand Final?

This is just fantastic. Salford are 12-0 in front for a reason, they have looked calmer and more composed.

Everyone is doing their job and doing it well. They are well organised, well drilled and they are continually going through their processes and are being methodical. Their discipline with and without the ball has been excellent.

Salford have absorbed pressure at times and really Wigan, while they showed signs, they look disjointed in attack and have lacked cohesion.

Wigan are a little rattled and have lost their composure.

There should be plenty of English representation in Sunday's National Rugby League Grand Final between Sydney Roosters and Canberra Raiders.

Ex-Wigan pair John Bateman and Ryan Sutton, plus England duo Elliot Whitehead and Josh Hodgson, are all named in the Raiders' extended squad to face a Roosters side that beat Wigan in February's World Club Challenge.

The final place in Super League next season will be filled on Saturday when Toronto host Featherstone in the Championship Grand Final.

The Canadian side were runaway league leaders after 27 games, while Rovers have got through three play-off rounds to get to this stage.

Read our match preview and also Dave Woods' take on Toronto's journey to the brink of Super League.

We'll also have live text coverage of the match itself, which kicks off at 19:30 BST on Saturday.

What a half of rugby league - if you're a Salford fan, that is. Wigan have work to do.

This is the first match in a huge weekend across the globe for rugby league, with three massive games in three days on three different continents...

And that's that for the first half.

My word.

Thanks to a Gil Dudson try and four goals from Krisnan Inu, Salford - who began the season as one of the favourites for relegation - are 40 minutes away from their first ever Grand Final.

Just as Wigan look like mounting a break, Liam Farrell is penalised for obstruction and it's another chance for Salford's Krisnan Inu to kick another two points...

Which he does! Salford lead by 12 points with a few seconds to go in the first period.

The Salford fans are loving this. They haven't stopped singing all half.

They're almost cheering another try! But Jake Bibby is held up in goal by Bevan French.

Salford pressing as half-time approaches... Bibby denied again!

Wigan are looking a little bit better at the moment after that off-colour start, but Salford are holding them at arm's length for now.

I'm sure Ian Watson and his Red Devils team will be more than content if they can take a 10-point lead into the interval.
