Wigan Warriors staged a thrilling late comeback to defeat Huddersfield Giants, narrowing the gap on Hull KR at the top of the Super League.
According to bbc.com, Huddersfield, led by Luke Robinson, was on the verge of an upset, close to securing only their second win of the season.
As the match approached its climax, with just five seconds left, Jack Farrimond executed a Hail Mary play, clinching victory for Wigan.
The loss was particularly hard for the Giants, who had been the stronger side for much of the match, played under challenging, blustery conditions at Flair Stadium in Dewsbury due to a concert rescheduling at Huddersfield's John Smith's Stadium.
Huddersfield had taken an 18-16 lead thanks to tries from George Flanagan, George King, and Joe Greenwood, all converted, but could not hold on as Wigan snatched the win at the last moment.
