Mark Chapman hosts live coverage from Wembley Stadium as Leigh Leopards contest their first Challenge Cup final since 1971 against Hull Kingston Rovers.\n\nThe Leopards booked their place in the final with a thrilling 12-10 win against world champions St Helens, overturning a six-point half-time deficit thanks to tries from Oliver Holmes and Zak Hardaker. The Leopards have lifted the trophy twice before, but this will be their first final appearance for 52 years.\n\nHull KR’s semi-final was also a nail-biter, with Brad Schneider's golden-point drop goal eventually giving them an 11-10 victory against defending champions Wigan Warriors.\n\nThey will hope the trip to Wembley ends more happily than their last final appearance, which saw them thrashed 50-0 by Leeds Rhinos in 2015 – still the biggest victory yet in a Challenge Cup final.
