Full-time: Huddersfield 16 Salford 18
The Red Devils see off a valiant late fightback from 12-man Huddersfield to take the two points. Giants will be kicking themselves. Play like that with 13 men and they win that

Now Chris Atkin is sin-binned for taking out a chaser. Huddersfield looking livelier with 12 men but it was a low bar

A difficult night gets worse for Elliot Wallis as he's sent off for a headbutt. One of the softest red cards you'll ever see. Pathetic

Nene Macdonald goes over from acting-half. Salford still down to 12 men but are dominating Huddersfield. Soon to be 18-0 after 48 minutes

Half-time: Huddersfield 0 Salford 12
The Giants lucky not to be further behind. Ryan Brierley baffled to have a try chalked off for an obstruction and then found himself in the bin a couple of minutes later for taking Esan Marsters high. Huddersfield need a spark from somewhere

Huddersfield think they're back in it but Harry Rushton is held up by brilliant Salford defence after taking Adam Clune's short ball

It's been the Nene Macdonald show in the opening quarter. He shrugs off Esan Marsters to burst into space before getting away a classy offload to give Ethan Ryan a clear run to the line. Giants have been restricting Salford's metres but they find themselves 12-0 down

Salford open the scoring through Nene Macdonald eight minutes in. Jake Connor tries to put Esan Marsters through a hole with a cut-out pass but the Salford centre reads it and goes 80 metres

Wakefield make a big early statement with the signing of Mike McMeeken on a four-year deal. Always nice when an exclusive is confirmed 😅

Huddersfield will do all they can to keep Luke Yates and George King is clearly a player they admire. It's a testing period for clubs and coaches across Super League, as Giants assistant Luke Robinson explains
