Leeds Rhinos 26-18 Warrington Wolves

Leeds Rhinos ended Warrington Wolves' unbeaten start to the season with a 26-18 victory at Headingley.

Tries from Danny McGuire and Zak Hardaker put the Rhinos into an early lead, but scores from Matty Blythe and Chris Hill saw the sides go in level at the break.

Kallum Watkins struck early for Leeds after the break, only for Ben Westwood to draw the visitors level once more.

A Kevin Sinfield penalty edged the home side in front, while Liam Hood's try in the 67th minute finally gave the Rhinos some vital breathing space.

The Wolves fought hard in the final 10 minutes as they looked to make a decisive score, but they came up short against a dogged Leeds defence.
