Leigh beat Huddersfield after game resumes

Three of Leigh's six tries came on Sunday, having run in the first three on Friday

Leigh Leopards carried on where they left off on Friday as they completed a six-try Super League win over Huddersfield Giants.

But after it was decided to play the final 32 minutes on Sunday, Edwin Ipape, John Asiata and Lachlan Lam scored tries, all converted by Ben Reynolds, as Leigh stretched their victory margin.

That added to the two tries from Josh Charnley and one from fellow winger Tom Briscoe Leigh had run in on Friday.

Sam Halsall did get one further consolation try to add to Jake Connor's brace on Friday for the visitors, but it was not enough to prevent the Giants slumping to their 14th defeat of the season.

After trooping off in darkness, Leigh struck first in the starkly contrasting Lancashire sunshine when the hosts declined a penalty kick at goal after a high shot on Zak Hardaker. The decision paid off as Papua New Guinea forward Ipape barged his way over by the posts.

Reynolds converted to extend the advantage to 10 points, but the contest was not quite over as Halsall showed when he wriggled over on the left to reduce the deficit to 22-16, within one converted score of potential golden point.

Connor was unable to add the goal and Leigh ended any doubt over the outcome when big Australian Asiata powered through a gap to score.

Lam then wrapped up the scoring with a fine individual effort to tighten fourth-placed Leigh's grip on a play-off place and put another dent in ninth-placed Huddersfield's hopes of making the top six.
