    • Hull City
    • 90+2' The final whistle blows and Sunderland run out comfortable 4-1 winners. Steve Bruce's side played well, but Hull were rather poor if truth be told. Phil Brown's men could have a long season ahead of them on this form. Thanks for joining me!
    • 89' Olofinjana goes in the book for a foul on Mensah.
    • 88' Jones has a shot for Sunderland, but Sonko is well placed to block.
    • 87' Reid's corner is cleared by Hull.
    • 83' Hunt sends over a free-kick from the right and Gordon does very well to make the save.
    • 80' Paulo Da Silva fouls Mendy to concede a free-kick. McShane takes it quickly.
    • 78' There's no coming back from this now for Hull, who have offered little in attack this afternoon and looked very shaky at the back.
    • 76' Bernard Mendy replaces Kilbane for Hull. John Mensah is on for Bardsley for Sunderland.
    • 75' GOAL! Zayette heads past his own goalkeeper to give Sunderland a fourth!
    • 70' Bent might be on a hat-trick but Steve Bruce decides to give Kenwyne Jones a run.
    • 68' Hunt swings over a corner for Hull, but Altidore's challenge on Craig Gordon is penalised.
    • 67' Altidore sends a wild long-range effort off target.
    • 66' GOAL! Bent has a second and Sunderland lead 3-1! Ferdinand was the provider, teeing up the striker for a simple close-range finish.
    • 62' Jozy Altidore replaces Ghilas for Hull as Brown goes for the equaliser.
    • 60' Bardsley fouls Kevin Kilbane and concedes a free-kick.
    • 58' Richardson sends over a cross but Hull clear.
    • 57' Hull make a change. Vennegoor of Hesselink replaces Fagan.
    • 53' Hunt whips in a corner from the right and Malbranque does well to head clear at the near post.
    • 50' Hull have responded well to going behind. But their final ball is lacking.
    • 48' GOAL! Hull fail to clear a cross at the far post and Reid rushes onto it from the left flank and drives a low shot into the opposite corner from 10 yards!
    • 46' The second half is underway at the Stadium of Light.
    • 45' There's the half-time whistle and Sunderland and Hull go into the break level at 1-1. Bent's penalty put the home side ahead, before Zayette capitalised on poor marking to head the equaliser just before half-time. Back in 15!
    • 43' GOAL! Zayette gets up well at the near post and steers a header home from a corner to bring Hull level!
    • 39' Ferdinand picks up a knock and gingerly hops away from the scene of the tackle. He'll be ok.
    • 38' Ghilas looks to be in for Hull, but the flag is up. JUST OFFSIDE!
    • 36' Corner on the right for Hull. Olofinjana jumps well, but his header loops over the bar.
    • 34' Reid is seeing a lot of the ball for Sunderland. He and Richardson have been heavily involved.
    • 32' McShane goes in the book for blocking a Reid pass with what looks like an arm.
    • 26' Reid goes at Zayette on the left flank, but his trickery doesn't fool the full-back this time.
    • 25' Campbell and Bent have linked well for Sunderland in the first quarter of the match.
    • 23' Hull have come in this match now. They're keeping the ball well in midfield.
    • 19' Free-kick to Sunderland midway inside the Hull half on the left flank. Reid sends it over, but McShane clears with a diving header at the near post.
    • 17' "Why are players like Vennegoor of Hesselink and­ Altidore on the bench? Phil Brown really wants­ to be relegated!" - Tanel T
    • 16' Good break down the right for Hull, but there's nobody on hand to meet the cross.
    • 14' Hunt is trying to drive the Hull midfield on, tackling everything that moves in midfield.
    • 12' GOAL! Darren Bent makes no mistake, driving his effort low to the right of Myhill and into the bottom corner. Sunderland deservedly lead.
    • 10' PENALTY TO SUNDERLAND! Andy Reid swings over a corner from the left and for some unknown reason Craig Fagan flaps a hand at it!
    • 8' Geovanni drives forwards and tries one from long range, but it's wide of target.
    • 7' Hull have offered little going forward thus far. But they enjoy a decent spell of possession to settle the nerves.
    • 5' Richardson whips over a decent cross from the left and Hull do well to clear.
    • 4' Sunderland enjoy the better of the early exchanges. Frazier Campbell finds space in the box and shoots low on the turn. But it's a comfortable save for Myhill.
    • 3' Stephen Hunt wastes no time in flying into a tackle!
    • 1' And we're away!
    • - Keiran Richardson is set to start at left-back for Sunderland today. The sun is shining at the Stadium of Light, let's hope we get a cracker.
