Hull City 2-3 Bristol City
- Published
Bristol City came from 2-0 down to win at Hull City and increase the pressure on Tigers manager Leonid Slutsky.
Fraizer Campbell deservedly bundled the hosts ahead, and Jarrod Bowen scored his 10th of the season from close range to double Hull's lead.
But Aden Flint stabbed home to cut the deficit, before Bobby Reid's scrambled effort drew the Robins level.
Josh Brownhill completed the comeback in the final minute to leave Hull winless in five and 20th in the table.
Slutsky, who was appointed as Marco Silva's replacement in June, has now won just four of his 19 league games in charge and is reportedly close to being sacked., external
After the 3-1 defeat by Middlesbrough on 31 October, the 46-year-old Russian admitted that he would have understood being dismissed, and he openly questioned his players mentality after their 4-1 loss at Sheffield United.
However, his side had looked to be cruising to a comfortable victory with 25 minutes left against Bristol City, two goals ahead and seldom under threat from their play-off-chasing opponents.
But Flint's goal against the run of play sparked the Robins into life and Reid's equaliser - his first in four games - almost seemed inevitable.
Kevin Stewart still squandered a great chance to put Hull back in front, and the home team were made to pay when Brownhill fired in from 20 yards to make it 3-2.
Hull boss Leonid Slutsky:
"Now (is a) really painful time for me. I can't think about the future now, about my job.
"If you have a problem now, it's a very difficult problem about the future.
"For now it is very difficult to speak, not about my job, (but) about today's match. You have an open, painful situation. Each movement for me is very difficult now."
Bristol City head coach Lee Johnson:
"It was a bit like parenting. When you've got a baby and it doesn't sleep it's horrendous and then you get an amazing moment of joy once or twice a day - that's what it felt like.
"We were terrible for the first 55 minutes, it just wasn't us. We couldn't get hold of it up front. We defended OK in the first half because we had to. We gave the ball up far too easy and, to be honest, I'm in awe of my squad.
"We have got a special team, special character and special personalities to be able to come back from that kind of performance and score three goals in the last 25 minutes."
