Newcastle back to winning ways as Willock and Hall end Hull’s unbeaten start
Hull always knew, sooner or later, they would lose a Premier League game, but no one can say they did not do everything in their power to try to delay that inaugural top-tier defeat.
TL;DR
- Newcastle scored two goals within the first seven minutes.
- Matthias Jaissle made a tactical switch to a three-at-the-back formation after an injury, which Hull exploited.
- Mohamed-Ali Cho scored for Hull, narrowing the deficit and increasing pressure on Newcastle.
- Hull missed a penalty deep in first-half stoppage time.
- Despite being under siege in the second half, Newcastle held on for the win.
