Coachless Castleford Tigers battled to a first Super League win of the season in a tight game against Leeds Rhinos.

The hosts took the lead when Bureta Faraimo crossed before Rhyse Martin converted Richie Myler's try to give the Rhinos an 8-6 half-time advantage.

Faraimo went over for a second time to put the Tigers back in front and Gareth Widdop's penalty extended their lead.

Derrell Olpherts had a great chance to score for Leeds in the corner but dropped the pass and Cas held on.
