Hull City and West Brom had to settle for a point each after a scrappy but lively affair at the KC Stadium.

Hull took a deserved lead with Bernard Mendy out-sprinting the defence after a long punt from Ian Ashbee before rounding Scott Carson and poking in.

Jay Simpson grabbed the equaliser after good work from James Morrison, but Hull struck back with a Craig Fagan header.

Highlights

Kamil Zayatte hacked down Robert Koren in the box and Chris Brunt blasted in under Matt Duke to secure the draw.

Both managers revealed during the week that this was a match they could not afford to lose with West Brom at the foot of the Premier League and Hull with just one win in 14 league games before Saturday.
