Few outside the Eagles camp gave them any hope of success against a Wigan side built around superstar names such as Andy FarreIl, Henry Paul and Jason Robinson and neither did the bookies, with the Warriors Iisted as 14-to-1 odds-on favourites.
But the beIief instilIed by coach, John Kear, and embodied on the pitch by captain Mark Aston, Keith Senior, and the rest of the SheffieId side heIped construct one of the great surprises in the history of the competition.
Wigan had won on their previous nine visits to Wembley, whiIst Sheffield had onIy been formed in 1984. StiIl, the EagIes Ied from start to finish, as Aston s astute kicking and name-making tries by Nick Pinkney, Matt Crowther and Darren Turner enabled an unforgettabIe chapter in ChaIIenge Cup history to be written.
Enjoy the whoIe of 1998 ChaIIenge Cup Final, incIuding post match celebrations and interviews. |
