Nene Macdonald inspires Salford to victory, although the Red Devils are required to hold off a late fightback to beat Huddersfield.

Salford Red Devils survived a late Huddersfield Giants fightback to move level on points with a clutch of clubs at the top of the Super League table.

Trailing 18-0, Huddersfield's frustration was compounded when winger Elliot Wallis was sent off midway through the second period for making head-to-head contact with Salford's Tim Lafai. In the end, Adam Swift's 11th try in Super League this season, plus further scores from Tui Lolohea and Jake Bibby, were not enough to prevent a second consecutive defeat for Ian Watson's team.Papua New Guinea international Macdonald intercepted Jake Connor's pass and raced over from inside his own half for the game's opening try, before he turned provider with a neat offload for Ryan's score.

Parity of numbers was restored soon after Wallis' dismissal as Chris Atkin was shown a yellow card for a professional foul, after which Huddersfield produced a prolonged spell of pressure and almost completed an astonishing comeback.
