1895 Cup Finalists confirmed

London Broncos will face Widnes Vikings in the 1895 Cup final.

Vikings booked their place with today’s emphatic 52-0 semi-final win over Rochdale Hornets at DCBL Stadium.

London reached the final, which will be played on Monday August 31, after winning 62-24 at Midlands Hurricanes in Saturday’s other semi-final.

Winger Brandon Webster-Mansfield led the way with four tries for Jason Demetriou’s side.

Broncos only led 24-12 at the break but pulled away impressively in the second period to secure their first-ever appearance in the 1895 Cup final.

Widnes haven’t reached the final since their inaugural event in 2019 when they lost to Sheffield Eagles.

It means there will be a new name on the Cup this year. 

The venue for the final will be announced next week.
