    This will be close.

    Abbas Miski dives to the corner for Wigan and they just might be into double figures here.

    A nervy wait again for Warrington.

    Jai Field might have just saved Wigan from conceding an almost immediate try no sooner does play restart after Tyler Dupree's opening score.

    Lachlan Fitzgibbon picks up a clever pass deep in the Wigan half and so nearly has a path through to score, but his efforts are thwarted by some quick thinking from the Wigan full-back.

    If this was a boxing match then Wigan would be ahead on points and this try reflects the dominance they have had in field position.

    They have had a lot more play-the-balls in Warrington territory. Pressure counts and Wigan pressure better than anyone else in this league.

    Tyler Dupree crashing through the Warrington defensive line like an NFL tight end. Think the Las Vegas Raiders fans here are impressed.

    Tyler Dupree, goal Adam Keighran

    Well now, the first try scored in a Super League game in the United States goes to Wigan Warriors.

    Tyler Dupree reacts fast and, after Warrington's Josh Thewlis fumbles a high ball to the corner under pressure from Liam Marshall, he runs the ball in for the first four points of this game.

    Adam Keighran adds the two.

    This is the stage now when a fatigue element starts to kick in. The temperature over there will be something they're not used to at this stage of the year.

    Substitutes are starting to get ready but there will be some tired legs and tired men out there now.

    A promising Warrington move is thwarted not by a moment of Wigan defensive genius but instead by Lachlan Fitzgibbon spilling the ball.

    Replays show he might have been carrying a bit too much speed in his run and a momentary lapse in concentration sees him carelessly knock on.

    Junior Nsemba just will not go down.

    The Wigan man gains a good bit of ground just past halfway as Wigan once again put Warrington under pressure.

    But the Cherry and Whites can't quite prosper from Nsemba's good work before the turnover.

    Any accusations levelled at these two sides that the fact they've flown long haul just days after their most recent games would affect the quality on offer will sound a bit silly at this point.

    This is a frenetic game of rugby league between two sides in typical early-season pomp.

    The opening stages of this game have been played at a ridiculous tempo.

    There’s a nice conversation going on behind me, in the stand, with a Wigan fan explaining the rules play-by-play to an American fan. It sounds like they’re understanding what’s going on so far.

    The atmosphere was building nicely outside the stadium before kick-off. Our man in Vegas, Adam Wild, was out with his camera capturing some of it.

    You could tell in Liam Marshall's face, he's an honest player, but he just lost control of the ball. That's unfortunate.

    Oh dear. This was SO close to being an absolutely incredible try.

    Under pressure from Warrington's Josh Thewlis, Liam Marshall takes to the air and looks to stretch his arm out and ground the ball before he lands in-touch.

    But an agonising replay shows the ball slips out of the Wigan winger's hand just - and I mean just - before he can ground it.

    What a frantic couple of minutes.

    My word, now Wigan are over.

    Liam Marshall makes a trademark acrobatic dive to the line right at the corner.

    Referee Chris Kendall's sending it upstairs but surely this will be given, no?

    It's not given.

    So, the kick to the corner is met almost simultaneously by Wigan's Adam Keighran and Warrington's Toby King.

    King, despite initially going to ground, then gets up and races in for what he feels is a certain try.

    But video referee Liam Moore pours cold water on any Wire celebrations, as the tackle is ruled to be complete from Keighran and a penalty is given.

    If there was a Top Trumps card for catching kicks and chasing kicks then that would be Toby King's super power because that's what he's known for.

    He's a massive kick target and I think he's picked the pocket of Adam Keighran for Warrington's first try.

    Lovely touch having the referees and touch judges in the NFL style black and white stripes.

    Toby King is down for Warrington.

    Referee Chris Kendall has given it but he's sending it upstairs to see whether a tackle in the build-up is incomplete.

    A nervy wait, here.

    Jai Field receives the ball and finds the space to gallop on through as Wigan make charge.

    But fortunately for Warrington, his last-ditch pass towards Liam Marshall waywardly swings in to touch.

    A let off for the Wire.
