  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Hull City
    • Bolton Wanderers
    • 90' Full time and Hull's search for a home win is finally over.
    • 90' Hull are defending so deep and a chance falls to Kevin Davies, but he shoots just wide.
    • 90' Late drama. Ricketts fires a low shot that is well saved by Myhill, Lee races onto the rebound and the keeper gets up to make a second save.
    • 90' Hull are playing for time as they keep the ball in the corner.
    • 88' Altidore shows great strength to collect the ball, he plays it out wide to Craig Fagan who drags his shot wide of target.
    • 87' Penalty claim for Bolton and it looked like Boateng left his leg in, but the referee is having none of it.
    • 86' Bolton go close, Muamba plays a 1-2 before shooting a yard wide from 20 yards.
    • 81' Geovanni replaced by George Boateng as Hull look to close things down.
    • 76' Another chance for Hull goes begging. Altidore has a shot saved, the ball falls to Ghilas but he lashes his effort over the top.
    • 74' CHANCE! Hull are now missing chances. Ghilas races onto a through ball, holds off his marker and crashes a volley against the bar.
    • 71' Bolton replace Johan Elmander with Chung-Yong Lee.
    • 70' WHAT A CHANCE! Hull break at pace, the ball finds its way to Altidore who is unmarked 15 yards out. He dinks the ball over the keeeper but a foot wide of target.
    • 69' A wicked ball into the box from Taylor but Olofinjana shows great desire to get to the ball and clear.
    • 68' Bolton sling the ball into the box again, but a Hull defender is on hand to clear. The Tigers are standing tall.
    • 65' Geovanni is not famed for his tackling and this is why as he is booked for a lunge on Paul Robinson.
    • 63' Another chance for Hull, Zayatte meets a cross from the right but heads the ball a yard wide.
    • 61' The change works wonders, as Altidore dinks the ball over the top for Ghilas who shoots beyond Jaaskelainen.
    • 61' Hull fans rise to their feet as Jiozy Altidore is brought on for Folan.
    • 60' Bolton sling the ball into the box again, it falls to Taylor but he volleys wide. It wasn't an easy chance.
    • 56' Matty Taylor burrows his way into a shooting position and forces a low save from Myhill.
    • 55' Elmander is booked for leaving his foot in on Turner.
    • 54' Hull are carrying little threat at the moment and Bolton look the more likely to score at this stage.
    • 52' Another dinked free kick causes problems for Hull. Davies climbs and heads the ball a foot wide of target.
    • 50' There's a lack of cutting edge and something needs to happen if my predicition of 2-1 is going to come off.
    • 47' Geovanni attempts the impossible, a Marco van Basten-esque volley from wide on the right but it flies over the top.
    • 46' An early chance at the start of the second half but Elmander heads wide, admittedly under intense pressure.
    • 46' Bolton get the second hald underway. Will they rue those missed chances?
    • 45' Half time and it's 0-0. Bolton have missed the best chances so far.
    • 45' WHAT A CHANCE! Davis dinks a free kick to the far post, Kevin Davies is unmarked four yards out but somehow he prods the ball across the face of goal and wide.
    • 41' It's turned very scrappy again with misplaced passes and poor delivery from out wide.
    • 36' From the free kick, Taylor shoots low and it forces a good diving save from Myhill.
    • 36' Olofinjana pulls down Mark Davies 30 yards from goal and is rightly cautioned.
    • 35' Bolton spring foward at pace, Elmander works the ball to Kevin Davies 20 yards out but he cuts across his short and it goes wide.
    • 34' Hull get in a tangle trying to clear, the ball falls to Elmander but his shot is weak and easy for Myhill.
    • 33' A rare moment of quality as Geovanni cuts in from the left and forces a smart low save from Jaaskelainen.
    • 31' Taylor floats a glorious corner into the six-yard box, Myhill stays on his line but somehow the ball goes all the way through for a goal kick. You can't ask for much better delivery.
    • 30' Stephen Hunt picks up a card for a foul on Matthew Taylor.
    • 26' Kevin Davies challenges Myhill in the area, the ball drops down but again Hull are able to clear. The Bolton bombardment continues.
    • 24' Decent chance for Hull but Stephen Hunt sends his free kick beyond its target and the ball goes behind.
    • 23' Ricketts slings in a long throw, the ball falls loose in the Hull box but the Tigers smuggle the ball clear.
    • 20' Sean Davis picks up a deserved caution for a lunging tackle on Ghilas.
    • 18' Heart in mouth time for Myhill who comes out to collect a cross, he drops it but is able to recover.
    • 15' A real scramble in the Hull box but Myhill comes out and clears house again.
    • 13' Hunt collects the ball 20 yards out and takes aim but the radar is awry as the ball flies over the top.
    • 11' Hull work the ball into the path of Ghilas who turns and shoots but the effort lacks power and is easily saved.
    • 10' Ten minutes in and it's a bit scrappy at the moment as neither side can retain possession.
    • 8' Bolton win a free kick in a decent position, the ball is flipped into area but Myhill comes off his line to punch clear. That's what you want from your keeper.
    • 5' A long ball over the top sets Folan galloping forward, but Jaaskelainen races off his line to gather.
    • 4' BIG CHANCE! Muamba springs Elmander clear, he moves in on goal at a tight angle but shoots like a player short on confidence as he strikes his effort wide of target.
    • 2' Muamba makes his presence felt with a crunching challenge on Andy Dawson.

    • - Hull really do need a win: No win in their last 12 Premier League home matches, since a 2-1 victory against Middlesbrough in December 2008. This is the longest Premier League run without a home win by a side since Derby County failed to win in 16 consecutive home matches from September 2007 to May 2008
    • - Welcome to our coverage of the Premier League game between Hull and Bolton. Both sides head into the game on the back of defeats and this could be classed as an early-season six-pointer. I'll have team news for you shortly.
