Warrington crashed to a third straight Super League defeat and could be in trouble with the Rugby Football League following crowd trouble in the Cheshire derby . The game was stopped for eight minutes after a flare was thrown from the stand housing visiting fans but Widnes maintained their focus to run out 30-10 winners and maintain their impressive form at the Select Security Stadium , where they have taken seven points out of a possible 10 this year . Warrington 's losing run is their worst since 2009 and their misery was compounded by the loss of winger Matty Russell with a leg injury . Following a delay caused by a flare , Widnes condemned Warrington to a third defeat in a row . Widnes , hammered by Salford in their previous outing , were boosted by the return of influential captain Kevin Brown from a three-match absence with a hamstring injury and the Wolves had no answer to his half-back partnership with Joe Mellor . Yet Warrington could hardly have made a better start , with England forward Ben Westwood collecting a rebound from Gareth O'Brien 's high kick to score the opening try after only five minutes . It was eight minutes before O'Brien could add the goal as the game was stopped to enable stewards to clear the flare from the pitch and remove the offenders . Once back under way , the game flowed from end to end but , while Widnes scrambled superbly to keep their line intact , the visitors ' defence cracked three times as the Vikings found some real potency in their attack . Dangerous full-back Rhys Hanbury got centre Cameron Phelps through a gap for the first try on 10 minutes and , after Russell had hobbled off , his opposite number Stefan Marsh gathered Brown 's pinpoint kick for the first of his brace of scores to give his side a lead they never looked like relinquishing . Widnes lost Phelps to injury on 29 minutes , which paved the way for 19-year-old Matt Whitley to make his debut , but they struck again three minutes before the break when Mellor 's cut-out gave Marsh a clear run for his second try . Jack Owens managed just one conversion and also missed a long-range penalty attempt on the stroke of half-time but Widnes took only five minutes of the second half to extend their lead . A touchline dash from Owens created the position for hooker Lloyd White to burrow his way over from dummy half for the softest of tries . It went from bad to worse for the visitors when Westwood was sin-binned following the concession of three consecutive penalties by his team and the Vikings immediately took advantage of the extra man when Brown went through a gap for a fifth try . Owens converted both tries to make it 26-6 but Warrington pulled a try back on 64 minutes through makeshift centre Ben Currie after the home side were down to 12 men with Danny Tickle in the sin-bin for a foul on Daryl Clark . Widnes fittingly had the final say when Owens went over three minutes from the end for his side 's sixth try .
Warrington slipped to their third straight defeat in Cheshire . Game was delayed for eight minutes after a flare thrown by visiting fans . Widnes captain captain Kevin Brown returned to inspire them to victory .
