Super League's bottom side London Broncos beat Hull FC 34-18 to end a 10-game winless run and achieve their first win of the season at Plough Lane.
The second half was marred by a head injury to the hosts captain Will Lovell, but his side - helped by a yellow card for Hull's Jordan Lane - scored three more times to wrap up the victory.Both teams were successful in holding up each other's play early on, with Hull losing possession when well-placed following a penalty.
But the visitors made amends quickly as a clever dummy from Jake Trueman saw him drop his shoulder and crash down to make it 10-6. His side then took the lead with seconds to go before half-time when Meadows floated the ball wide to Walker, who twisted around the defence and allowed Storey to squeeze in and score.Play was stopped just after the break because of the injury to Broncos' Lovell, who was taken off after a heavy collision with Hull's replacement prop Franklin Pele.
