St Helens 26 Wigan Warriors 18

St Helens will renew rivalries with Leeds Rhinos after twice coming from behind to book their place in the Super League Grand Final for a sixth conecutive year.

Wigan led 12-8 at the break with tries from Josh Charnley and recalled Eamon O’Carroll, either side of the bursting Lee Gaskell’s stunner for Saints.

But second-half tries from Paul Wellens, Jamie Foster, who kicked four goals, and James Roby proved crucial, despite Sam Tomkins’ late consolation.
