Summary:l |
The Challenge Cup began with a two legged first round tie
against Leigh. With the first leg at home, Wigan were expected to take a
good lead away to Leigh for the second leg. The half time score was 11-5 and
all seemed to be going to plan but in the second half the visitors scored
twice to take a 12-11 advantage back to Hilton Park. |
