39" - SIN BIN - Jeylan Hodgson is sent to the bin for 10 minutes after he is adjudged to have made a late hit on his former Hull FC team mate, Sully Medforth. Not a lot in that one. Hurricanes take the two from the penalty. 🔴⚫ 6-6⚡️

HALF TIME: HURRICANES 6-6 VIKINGS A competitive but cagey first-half between two good teams. The Canes took the lead through Matt Chrimes in the left hand corner, before Tom Halliday replied for the Vikings. A late penalty brought the scores level, with Hodgson sent to the bin

40" - The teams are back out for the second half! A big ten minutes to come from the Vikings to weather their numerical disadvantage. Been a huge amount of endeavour from the visitors; can they get themselves back in front and hang on for a huge two points? ⚡️ 6-6 🔴⚫

50" - TRY - The Hurricanes are back in front. The Vikings concede a penalty and from the resulting field position, the Canes shift the ball to the right wing, where the extra man makes the difference. Roberts strolls in for a 10-6 lead ⚡️10-6 🔴⚫

52" - The Vikings hold out and are back up to thirteen players with the return of Hodgson. It's getting a little tasty out there now. A Hurricanes player has gone on report after an allegation from Reece Dean, whilst some big hits are getting fired in. ⚡️10-6 🔴⚫

60" - An hour gone and Hurricanes add on two more points from a close range penalty courtesy of the boot of Chrimes to extend their lead to 12-6. It has become a scrappy second half, and the Vikings ill-discipline and errors is costing them at the moment ⚡️12-6 🔴⚫

64" - TRY!!!! JACK ARNOLD! BOOM! The Vikings finally get in good ball for the first time in this second half and they make it count! Hodgson's sharp flat pass is pin point for the onrushing Arnold who can't be stopped from close range. ⚡️12-10 🔴⚫

65" - CONVERSION. Reece Dean. More simple this time for Dean from in front of the posts, and we're all square at the Alexander Stadium ⚡️12-12 🔴⚫

71" - The Vikings repel the Hurricanes latest storm, as Barcoe goes close with a scoot close to the line, before Medforth misjudges his drop goal attempt, to hand possession back to the Vikings ⚡️12-12 🔴⚫

74" - DROP GOAL! REECE DEAN!!! Wow, from one end to the other. Seven tackle set for the Vikings to set up field position, and Dean expertly slots the drop goal from 30 yards out - the Vikings are ahead again! ⚡️12-13 🔴⚫

80" - FULL TIME!!! There's the hooter! It's a win for the Vikings! They see out the final exchanges to record a fantastic victory on the road in Birmingham, to make it two wins from two! Tries from Halliday and Arnold, and a DG from Dean seals a brilliant win! ⚡️12-13 🔴⚫
