Bolton consigned Hull to a third straight Premier League defeat as a Matthew Taylor volley secured a 1-0 victory at the KC Stadium. More
93' And that's it!! Phil Brown shall be scratching his head as to how his side have lost that one.
87' On his 400th start for Bolton Jaaskelainen will not be beaten. King turns his man and lets go of a thunderbolt that takes a deflection, but somehow the Bolton man turns it away.
70 What a save!!! Jaaskelainen!! Point blank range. Incredible. Marney delivered to an unmarked Geovanni, who, no more than 6 yards out, headed straight at Jaaskalainen, the keeper making a fantastic reaction stop. Matthew Turner forced it back into the danger area but the threat had gone.
67' Goal-scorer Taylor drives a free-kick into the wall and from the resulting throw-in volleys just wide.
64' Brown isn't afraid to change it, introducing Sam Ricketts for Andy Dawson.
61' Marney is fouled on the edge of the box by Muamba, and Geovaani stands over it. What an effort; what a save. Curling it up and over the wall it looked destined to go in, but Jaaskelainen palmed it away.
54' Brown introduces Mendy for Cousin.
50' GOOOAAAALLLLLLL...Gavin McCann swings in the corner which Ashbee heads out to the edge of the area. Marney fails to clear and Taylor volleys home. Simplicity.
46' And we're off. Bolton break quickly but Myhill comes out and claims Taylor's cross.
41' Muamba scythes down Ashee nad finds his name along side Dawson's in the referee's note book.
38' A bit of mix up in the Hull back line allows Ricardo Gardner to nip in between Myhill and McShane to hook the ball across an untended Hull goal. Zayatte hooks clear.
29' Finally, Hull put a nice move together and Dawson strokes the ball into King, who touches it down for Dean Marney to see his volley blocked.
23' Andy Dawson's in Alan Wiley's book, a poor attempt at a tackle on Ricardo Gardner heralds a free-kick and a card - rightly so.
18' Woodwork...Marlon King has struck the cross-bar with an instinctive improvised flick of his right foot from a Geovanni cross.
1' And referee Alan Wiley gets us underway...should be a good game here. Bolton are chasing successive victories for the first time this season, while the home side will look to bounce back following their first back-to-back defeats in 11 months. Game on. Oh, and Phil Brown will be extra eager to beat the side he has coached and had a brief spell in charge of in the Autumn of '99.| Hull City | Stats | Bolton Wanderers |
