Weller Hauraki extended Salford's lead when he crashed over before Oliver Roberts hit back for the Giants to reduce the gap to 20-12.

However, Lui slotted over a penalty with 10 minutes remaining before Jake Bibby's late double added gloss to the scoreline.

Salford coach Ian Watson said: “We started well but got a bit scrappy where we didn’t finish our sets in the first half.

“But in the second half we got that composure back. Even when Huddersfield had a purple patch attacking our goal line, we defended well and fronted up.

Good win for the boys today short turnaround onto Fridaylet’s go again!! Massive shoutout to all the salford supporters that travelled to Huddersfield today aswel 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

“We weathered the storm and knew it was going to turn at some point. When it did we got the rewards at the back end.”

Huddersfield caretaker coach Chris Thorman said: “I thought we competed for most parts apart from the first quarter and the last 10 minutes.

"But when you make 13 unforced errors with the ball and concede 12 penalties you are going to be chasing your tail.”
