Rugby League Challenge Cup: Catalans Dragons v Wakefield

Taal: nld
Categorie: Teamsporten

Continued live Challenge Cup coverage with the second game of a sixth-round double-header, played on neutral territory, as Catalans take on Wakefield. Catalans famously won a maiden Challenge Cup in 2018 - under the stewardship of ex-England coach Steve McNamara - to become the first non-British side in the history of the competition to lift the trophy. McNamara's current side includes the likes of Sam and Joel Tomkins, Michael McIlorum and Lewis Tierney and is a force to be reckoned with. Tony Gigot - the Lance Todd trophy winner from the Dragons' Challenge Cup success two years ago - left to join opponents Wakefield only last month and is keen to get one over his ex-teammates. Trinity have not won the Challenge Cup since 1963 but are building an impressive squad under coach Chris Chester, who guided Hull KR to the final in 2015. Mark Chapman presents all the action, with commentary provided by Matt Newsum.
