    It's St Helens who now have Warrington pinned with a long kick.

    A long kick from Warrington has Jack Welsby picking the ball up in his in-goal area.

    And yet again, Warrington hold on.

    St Helens swing right then back to the left before a grubber kick is squeezed into the in-goal area. There is too much on it and the ball runs dead.

    Jack Welsby is past one defender... no make that two and he links up with Will Hopoate.

    The hosts are steaming away down the left edge, but Hopoate is stopped.

    Will this be the break that sets up the game's first points?

    It it worth pausing a moment to say that St Helens have also suffered a worrying injury setback, with Joe Batchelor limping off earlier with what appeared to be a hamstring problem.

    Jack Welsby now fumbles the ball for St Helens, and this one is deep in their defensive half.

    Saints get away with it, as Ben Currie is deemed to have illegally got a hand in there to strip the ball.

    Mark Percival has dropped the ball over the line for St Helens! Staggering stuff, as he had the line begging.

    St Helens have showcased what they are capable of doing on the attack in one sensational move.

    They break from inside their own 20 and have Warrington scrambling in defence.

    Tommy Makinson tries to kick through, but Matty Russell is alive to the danger and swats the ball dead.

    And nothing comes of that first attacking threat.

    Warrington run out of options as they run it on the last. They have let St Helens off the hook there.

    We have the first big error of the game, and it comes from St Helens.

    Mark Percival is unable to hold the ball on the halfway line and it gifts Warrington the first chance to attack the line.
