    Hull 0-2 Man City

    You can only hear the Man City fans now. They are serenading their team from the away end as Hull fail to fashion something from a brief period of possession.

    Ryan Mason's frustration gets the better of him as he goes in late on Raheem Sterling to earn the game's first booking.

    Kelechi Iheanacho

    Game over. The first goal was a hammer blow to Hull. This is the KO. Kevin de Bruyne finds David Silva on the right side of the box and his low cross is finished off by sub Kelechi Iheanacho for his sixth goal of the season.

    Hull 0-1 Man City

    This is also the 15th time Hull have conceded the first goal this season - more than any other side. It is a bad habit - especially when you've only scored 14 goals in nearly 18 matches - and a big reason why they currently prop up everyone else.

    Hull City will want to keep up the attitude of "this game isn't over yet".

    Hull 0-1 Man City

    Well, Man City have not had it their own way this game. Not by a long way. But they in the box seat now. Poor Hull are undone by a penalty again. They have now conceded nine spot-kicks this season - four more than any other Premier League side.

    Yaya Toure

    No mistake from Yaya, who staggers his run-up and sends David Marshall left as the ball goes right.

    Hull 0-0 Man City

    You can see it in Andy Robertson's eyes from the moment he lunges in to try and tackle Raheem Sterling that he is in trouble. Down goes Sterling and the ref's finger points to the spot.

    Kelechi Iheanacho gets his first sight of goal but he is unable to get any power on his goalbound effort at the back post after poking a boot out past his marker to meet the ball.

    JavelBleach: Hull are well on top, but can they score? We know Man City can if they get a chance. 

    Bob Moss: This match is crying out for the final whistle. 

    Al Mamun Russell: Are City playing the bottom of the table team or derby away? Hell of a fight put up by Hull!

    Hull 0-0 Man City

    The Hull fans and Dieumerci Mbokani are raging with the ref as Aleksandar Kolarov tumbles to the ground during a race between the two players. Not sure what they've got to complain about, though. It was a blatant pull back by the Hull player.

    Chance! De Bruyne's first touch is brilliant to collect a ball that is behind him and put it perfectly in front of him to strike on the turn. His shot is less impressive as he fires well wide of goal.

    We have a contender for dive of the season. Fernandinho and Ahmed Elmohamady go in with boots up to challenge for the ball. The former fails to make contact with the latter, who takes a second or two before swan diving to the turf. 6.5 7.0 6.9 7.0

    Hull are in the ascendancy. They win another corner that Snodgrass swings in and Bravo punches away.

    Hull are growing in confidence and threat. Dieumerci Mbokani holds the ball up well before releasing Robert Snodgrass down the right. Sadly for the home side, the Scottish player's right foot lets him down as his attempted cross slices out of play.

    Man City are really missing Sergio Aguero. 

    It's clear to see they are not getting the runs he makes from anyone else.

    Maybe Iheanacho will provide something but Aguero is a noticable absentee.

    The Hull fans are in good voice now. They sense an opportunity.

    Dieumerci Mbokani is fouled by Aleksandar Kolarov to give the home side a free-kick that Robert Snodgrass swings into the mixer and watches with hands raised as the ball hits a couple of bodies before trickling wide.

    From the resulting corner, Hull knock louder than they have all game as Michael Dawson's header is cleared off the line by the head of Bacary Sagna.

    Great effort from De Bruyne. He is really unlucky. He shapes to cross before closing his foot on a shot that beats David Marshall but cracks the base of the post and flies across the face of goal and away.

    Oh, chance for Hull. Harry Maguire gets a boot to a chipped free-kick into the box but his volley is uncontrolled and flies over the bar. Poor defending from Aleksandar Kolarov, who allowed Maguire to get goal-side of him.
