Although Warrington had taken a 2-0 penalty goal lead,
Wigan had managed to get 14-2 up by the 52nd Minute. However, Warrington
quickly hit back with a converted try and for the next 10 minutes or so
really pushed to claw back the 14-7 deficit. But Johnny Ring's 66th Minute
try killed them off and Wigan had won their Third League Championship. |
