    Hull FC 8-4 Wigan

    Wigan kick the ball out on the full straight from the restart and that's not a great response to Hull's inspired comeback.

    Hull win a kick-off of their own which results in another set but deep into Wigan's half of the field.

    Hull FC 8-4 Wigan

    This is a bruising game so far and the weather is certainly playing its part this afternoon.

    This could be a game that's won and lost based on the conditions just as much as everything else.

    Wigan concede a cheap penalty within kicking range and Marc Sneyd adds another two.

    We're into that tasty part of the game. Both teams are banging away at each other.

    We're moments out from the 20 minute mark and this is where the big guys tire and the teams have to step up their game.

    That second set of six came in handy for Wigan in the end!

    Leeds' Headingley

    Just a note on the weather, it is absolutely horrid. Rain teeming down most of the day which will have its impact on the surface and the ball.

    Fair play to the drainage at Headingley, not a pool of water to be seen.

    Plenty of 'up the jumper' football to be expected here.

    Marc Sneyd sends a crossfield kick in towards the corner on Hull's last tackle as they try to grind the first try of this game.

    Liam Farrell knocks it dead before they can race onto it and Wigan survive the first Hull attack of this game.
