Fouad Yaha scored a 25-minute hat-trick as Catalans Dragons won 42-6 at home to Salford on Saturday.

The Dragons were 20-0 up at half time thanks to a blockbuster 13-minute period mid-way through the first half, where they scored three tries without reply.

Those four-pointers came courtesy of Samisoni Langi, Ben Garcia and Josh Drinkwater. James Maloney converted all three and booted a penalty goal.

And the momentum continued in the second period with Yaha running in his blockbuster hat-trick between the 43rd and 68th minute.

Tom Davies also got in on the act with a try on 50 minutes, with Maloney adding three more goals to some extra gloss to the scoreline.

Salford’s sole response came through Harvey Livett on 53 minutes, a score which ex-Dragon Morgan Escare converted.
