Ma'u try snatches win for Hull FC

Manu Ma’u’s converted try three minutes from time saw Hull FC snatch an 18-16 victory at home to Warrington Wolves in the Bank Holiday Monday Betfred Super League clash.

Jamie Shaul broke the deadlock on his return to action for the hosts after Warrington had Ben Currie sin-binned for a professional foul, but some quick thinking from Daryl Clark caught the Black and Whites napping to level the score.

Brad Fash and Matty Ashton then exchanged tries as the teams went in level at 12-12 when the half-time hooter sounded, and it remained that way for most of the second half, with Hull FC's Luke Gale missing a drop goal attempt with 12 minutes remaining.

The Wolves then went straight up the other end to go in front through Ashton's second, but the home side rallied and Ma'u forced his way over for a 77th minute try which was eventually confirmed by the video referee to brings the scores level, followed by skipper Gale kicking the game-winning conversion.

It was a big win for Brett Hodgson's side - after an underwhelming derby defeat to Hull Kingston Rovers on Good Friday - against a Wire side buoyed by a big win over Salford Red Devils last time out.

After both sides traded early field position, Hull scored first shortly after Currie was sin-binned for pulling back Jordan Lane in a try-scoring position, with Jamie Shaul finishing off a flowing move from right to left.

The Wolves bit back shortly after to level the scores as hooker Clark took a quick tap penalty and burst through a stationary Hull defence to finish.
