Teenager Jack Campbell scored twice on his debut as St Helens bounced back from last week's humiliation to beat Catalans Dragons in a Super League thriller at the BrewDog Stadium.

The 18-year-old, drafted in on the morning of the game after Nene Macdonald joined Saints' exhaustive injury list, touched down twice in a scintillating second-half fightback.

Whitewashed 46-0 by Toulouse a week ago on home turf, Saints needed a response and their patched-up side delivered it to all but end Catalans' play-off hopes after a fourth successive defeat.

The result moved Saints up to fifth in the table, six points off leaders Leeds Rhinos, while Catalans remain in eighth after their 11th defeat of the season.

Welsby; Douglas, Sailor, Davies, Campbell; Robertson, Hastings; Suluka-Fifita, Burns, Host, Sironen, Cartwright, Shorrocks.
