Wolves can find the Magic for Wembley spot

IF WARRINGTON can reproduce the sort of performance they put on at Magic Weekend, they have every chance of victory in tomorrow's Betfred Challenge Cup semi-final against Leigh Leopards (KO 4.15pm Totally Wicked Stadium, BBC2).

Wolves can find the Magic for Wembley spot

Wolves fans of my acquaintance didn't travel to Newcastle's St James' Park last Sunday with high expectations.

Their side was down on troops with a number of notable players on the sidelines and they'd been paired at Magic with a high-flying Wigan Warriors side close to full strength.

What's more, with this week's semi-final looming while the Warriors were going into a week off, many were predicting something of a rout.

As it turned out, we got nothing of the sort.

In a thrilling contest, Warrington went down just 22-20 and played some sparkling rugby to boot.
