Monday, 23 September 2024 - 6 minutes

In a hard-fought and exhilarating contest, York triumphed with a 26-24 victory against Sheffield Eagles on Friday night, exacting revenge for earlier defeats at home this season. Despite an early setback, York mounted a determined comeback to lead 18-12 at the half.

The visitors extended their lead in the second half, appearing to be in control before conceding two late tries that brought the scoreline uncomfortably close. York’s defence held firm in the closing moments, securing a vital win that propels them into a stronger position for the play-offs.

The victory leapfrogs York, albeit temporarily, into fourth place in the table, adding further significance to their final game of the regular season next Sunday at home against Featherstone.
