Leeds Rhinos 14-23 Wigan Warriors

Oliver Partington scored his first try for Wigan Warriors to help them to a 23-14 win over Leeds Rhinos in a tense Betfred Super League clash at Headingley.

Leeds twice held the lead before Partington came up with the all-important score on the hour and Wigan produced some superb defence to keep their lead intact in a tense final quarter, completing the double over the Rhinos.

Wigan's final margin of victory was inflated by a freak try in the final seconds from prop Tony Clubb, who picked up a loose ball as Leeds chased victory on the hooter and had enough space and pace to reach the corner.
