Wakefield Trinity delivered a stunning performance on Saturday, defeating Wigan 33-6 in the Super League play-off semi-final. This emphatic win brought an end to Wigan's aspirations of achieving a second domestic treble in three years, having already claimed the Challenge Cup and League Leaders' Shield this season.
Wigan head coach Matt Peet conceded that Wakefield were "far too good" for his side, despite Wigan entering the semi-final on a formidable run of 16 successive victories. Peet expressed pride in his team's achievements throughout the season, stating, "This hurts, but it's sport."
After Wigan initially took the lead with Brad O'Neill's converted try, Wakefield responded with 33 unanswered points. Wakefield Trinity will now advance to their first-ever Grand Final, where they are set to face Warrington Wolves.
