Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-1 Hull City

Allan McGregor's handling error saw Hull concede their first league goal of the season

Wolverhampton Wanderers capitalised on a poor error from Hull City goalkeeper Allan McGregor to earn a draw in their first home league game of the season.

James Henry nodded Wolves' equaliser into an empty net after McGregor had spilled Nouha Dicko's cross.

The visitors had led in the first half through Nikica Jelavic's spot kick after Kortney Hause shoved Curtis Davies in the penalty area.

Both sides' winning start to the season ended despite going close late on.

Steve Bruce's side, bidding for an immediate return to the Premier League after relegation in May, have won just one away league game in 2015.

That looked like changing when Jelavic converted from the spot for his first goal since February.

Wolves deserved a goal of their own and they were rewarded in fortunate circumstances when McGregor, seemingly under no pressure, dropped a simple catch straight into the path of Henry, who did not miss.

Chuba Akpom struck the post for Hull as both sides pressed for a winner, but the result means both teams remain unbeaten so far this season.

Wolves boss Kenny Jackett said:

"It probably was a fair result, we put in a good performance and I'm pleased with a lot of aspects.

"We were probably unlucky to go behind on the balance of play. We kept going and got a little fortunate with the goal.

"The last 10 minutes, when the energy went out of the game, Hull's quality on the ball really showed. They are a good side and a good yardstick."

Hull City boss Steve Bruce told BBC Radio Humberside:

"The one thing in football management you can never legislate against is error. Unfortunately Allan will have to live with it - it's now how he copes with it.

"We all know what a good goalkeeper he is, but goalkeepers are highlighted above everybody else - it's a big position.

"We had an awful start from the first 30 seconds - the second half I thought we were excellent".

Nikica Jelavic opened the scoring from the spot

Hull were playing their first away league game since their relegation back down to the Championship
