Salford City Reds 34-30 Catalan Dragons

Salford City Reds staged a comeback to pull off a surprise 34-30 victory over Catalan Dragons at the Salford City Stadium on Friday night.

Tries from Daryl Millard, Scott Dureau, Cyril Stacul and Lopini Paea had put the visitors in a dominant position midway through the first half.

However, scores from Joel Moon and Daniel Holdsworth made it 20-12 at the break.

Two quick tries after half time from Sean Gleeson and Jodie Broughton saw the Reds overturn the deficit, while Luke Patten extended their lead.

Remi Casty's try on the hour kept the Dragons in the match, but another score from Broughton on 69 minutes all but sealed the win for the home side.

Vincent Duport's score made it a nervy final five minutes for Salford, though they were able to hold on for the victory.
