Rugby League Results: Warrington Wolves Seal Wembley Return with Challenge Cup Semi-Final Victory
On Sunday afternoon, Warrington Wolves booked their place in the Challenge Cup final with a commanding 46-10 victory over Huddersfield Giants at the Totally Wicked Stadium. This marks the Wolves’ first trip to Wembley since 2019, when they lifted the trophy.
Head coach Sam Burgess has guided his side to the brink of silverware just a few months into his tenure, with a number of standout individual displays driving the team to the final.
“Matt Dufty was electric for the Wolves, scoring two tries in the second half to cap off a fantastic performance. Wingers Matty Ashton and Josh Thewlis were a constant threat, while George Williams orchestrated proceedings masterfully from the halves.”
Danny Walker’s livewire display out of dummy-half was equally influential, with the hooker crossing for a try and setting up a crucial score for Williams. Lachlan Fitzgibbon and Ben Currie were immense in the pack, showcasing their power and skill.
The 46-10 scoreline was a fair reflection of Warrington’s dominance, as they secured a Wembley return and the chance to lift the Challenge Cup trophy for the first time since 2019. The Wolves will face either Wigan Warriors or St Helens in the final, in what promises to be a thrilling encounter.
This result continues Warrington’s strong rugby league form this season, and they will be full of confidence as they aim to end their five-year wait for domestic silverware next month at the home of rugby league.
