A TRY with the last play of the game saw York City Knights lose 24-18 at home to Halifax in the Co-operative Championship.

The Knights had fought back from 12-0 and 18-12 down with tries by Chris Green, Jack Lee and Alex Benson, with Chris Thorman kicking three goals, to level at 18-18 with five minutes to go.

But Fax hooker Sean Penkywicz dived over from acting-half in the dying seconds to nick the spoils.
