Sunderland the 'epitome of a Tony Mowbray team', says Hull boss Liam Rosenior

Hull City boss Liam Rosenior says Sunderland's swashbuckling style makes them the 'epitome of a Tony Mowbray team'. Rosenior was speaking after watching his side snatch a last-gasp equaliser to claim a deserved point in a thrilling 4-4 draw against the Black Cats at the Stadium of Light last night.

Rosenior took over at Hull in November for what is his first permanent job as a head coach, and he says he is a big admirer of the vastly experience Mowbray. And their respective sides served up a terrific game on Wearside, with Hull taking an early lead before Sunderland came from behind to go in front, only for Hull to level and then retake the lead in the second half.

Sunderland came from behind again and looked to have won it until an injury-time penalty earned the Tigers a draw. "There's no right or wrong way to play football - every team has a different way - but Tony is someone who I have looked up to for a long time for the way he coaches his teams," said Rosenior.
