| Summary:l |
A 4:00pm midweek replay still saw 25,000 turn
out to watch at Central Park. On a sunny evening, Hector Gee scored to put
Wigan 3-0 up in the third minute before Castleford equalised with a try from
Walker. Before Half Time, Gee scored a well taken second try, which was
converted by Jim Sullivan for an 8-3 half time lead. Cunliffe then scored
for Castleford to bring that deficit down to 8-6. Wigan dominated the final
quarter but still had to edge their way past the winning post. Sullivan had
missed a penalty before finally kicking on and the tie was only decided when
Eddie Holder scored a try in the final minute. |
