Vikings Narrowly Beat The Centurions to Get to Wembley
Of the two 1895 Cup semi-finals, the match at the Leigh Sports Village between the Centurions and Widnes Vikings was the one to get the juices flowing. Two sides with a Super League pedigree, both desperate to get to Wembley, would need to overcome wet conditions to progress.
It's honours shared in 2019 with both sides winning their home fixtures. The Vikings won the game in April by 30-12 while Leigh picked up the points by 36-22 in May. If it hadn't been for Widnes points penalty before the season started then they would have only been separated by two league positions.
The stage was set for a classic semi-final, it was down to the two teams to deliver.
