Red Devils comeback is Rover all too soon

SALFORD slipped to their third straight defeat as Mikey Lewis scored a brace to inspire Hull KR to victory at the AJ Bell Stadium.

SALFORD RED DEVILS - 16

HULL KR - 26

Tony Smith’s side led 18-0 at the break but they were pegged back by a determined Red Devils fightback which saw them get within two points of the visitors with a quarter of the game remaining.

Both teams suffered heavy defeats in their last outings against Huddersfield and St Helens respectively, but it was Hull KR who looked to have rediscovered their form the quicker with half-backs Lewis and Jordan Abdull directing their team around the field with impressive authority.
