Warrington beat fellow play-off hopefuls Hull FC to win for the first time in nine games and revive their push with four rounds left.

Adam Swift swiped a loose ball to put Hull ahead before two superb tries from George Williams and Matt Dufty.

The Wire kept Hull out with stubborn defence before Matty Ashton went over from a fine, looping Williams pass.

Hull's loss is a huge dent to their play-off hopes, as four points now separate them from the top six.

Jake Trueman limped off five before the break with what looked like a serious ankle injury, a further blow to the Black and Whites.
