Hull FC completed an impressive comeback to beat play-off rivals Wakefield Trinity and claim their first home win of the year.

Max Jowitt, Super League's top points-scorer, got all of the points in an error strewn first half, as he added a late converted try to his two earlier penalties to give Wakefield a 10-0 lead at the break.

But the hosts massively improved after half-time and drew level through tries from Zak Hardaker and Jordan Rapana.

Lewis Martin gave the Black and Whites the lead with a 64th-minute try in the corner and Hull FC comfortably held out for a first win in front of their own fans since 20 July last year.

The victory sees John Cartwright's men move above Trinity into the final play-off place with nine games of the regular season to go.
