Hull City boss Liam Rosenior admits his side's 1-1 draw against ten-man Sunderland felt like two points dropped - even though the Tigers had to come from behind to take anything from the game. The Black Cats looked to be heading for victory after Ross Stewart came off the bench in the second half at the MKM Stadium to fire his side in front 15 minutes from time as he made his return after three-and-a-half months out with a thigh injury.
But struggling Hull will feel they should have offered more, given they had a chance to take the lead from the penalty spot just after half-time only for Oscar Estupinan to fire wide, and then they played the final half-hour with a man advantage after Sunderland's Elliot Embleton was sent off. As it was, Hull managed only two shots on target all match, the first of which came in the 82nd minute and brought the equaliser for sub Ozan Tufan.
Rosenior said: "It's frustrating - not in a negative way. Sunderland are a good side, they've got one of the best records away from home and we've limited them to very little - I don't remember Matty [Ingram, the Hull goalkeeper] having to make a save all game.
