Tigers overturn halftime deficit

Castleford Tigers came from behind to beat York Knights 24-18 in Round 11 of the Betfred Super League at the LNER Community Stadium. York controlled much of the first half and carried an 18-12 advantage into the break, but the visitors responded strongly after halftime to secure an important away victory.

Greacen delivers decisive moment

Brock Greacen produced the key play of the match with a decisive try in the 58th minute, helping Castleford complete the comeback and edge ahead during a tense second half. York continued to pressure late in the game, but the Tigers held firm to close out the six-point result. The win marked Castleford’s second road success of the 2026 season and lifted them above York in the table.

Wider season significance

The result continued contrasting recent trends for the two clubs. York Knights have remained competitive against stronger opponents this season but have struggled to turn performances into victories during a demanding stretch of fixtures. Castleford, meanwhile, showed signs of improving form during the spring period, with the comeback win narrowing the gap in the upper portion of the standings and providing momentum heading into the next round.
