Blackburn 1-1 Hull

Aug 24, 2008

Hull’s bright start to life in the top flight continued as they earned a battling point at Blackburn.

The Tigers were almost faultless in defence, faltering only once when Jason Roberts sprung the offside trap and flicked the ball home on 39 minutes.

But Hull drew level almost immediately when Richard Garcia looped a header over Paul Robinson and into the corner.

Rovers dominated possession after the break but failed to create any clear-cut chances.

It was surely not the result the home fans expected after their spirits were lifted by an impressive 3-2 win at Everton on the opening day.
