Vikings overcome improving Eagles
SHEFFIELD EAGLES 12 WIDNES VIKINGS 24
DAN FOWLER Steel City Stadium, Sunday
WIDNES snapped a three-game losing streak by defeating struggling Sheffield.
Former North Queensland Cowboys and Manly Sea Eagles forward Ben Condon starred for the Vikings, notching two tries that proved to be the difference.
There was hardly anything separating the sides at the break as Widnes led by just two points, both scoring just one try apiece in the first half.
Matty Dawson-Jones broke the deadlock on eleven minutes, receiving a lovely cut-out ball from Cory Aston, who didn’t look like he was returning from ten weeks on the sideline. The conversion attempt from the stand-off was unsuccessful.
