Bristol City 1-1 Hull City: Tigers hold on with 10 men

Bristol City assistant Chris Hogg told BBC Radio Bristol:

“Frustration is the word – that’s the true emotion. With them being down to 10 men for so long people will think we should have steamrollered them.

“Having 10 men can galvanise teams but we just weren’t quite at our best in breaking them down and that’s the most frustrating thing.

“They defended their box really well but it came down to belief and our quality. The penalty gave us a lift and gave the whole stadium a lift but we struggled to break down their block and that is something we will have to have a look at.

“There were some good bits and some nearly bits but the boys need to back themselves. We know we could have done better in some moments. We didn’t start the game with our usual intent.”

Hull City boss Ruben Selles told BBC Radio Humberside:

“We will take the point but we came here with the clear intention of getting three.

“We showed domination in the first 15 minutes and were the best team by far but the red card changed everything. We were unlucky with that situation. But I am proud of the effort.

“The overall performance from the very beginning – winning the ball high and trying to play vertical with the build-up – showed the boys were ready to make a good performance and be competitive and the goal was a clear example of that. It was an amazing action from Joao with his technical ability.”

On Pedro’s red card, Selles said he had not had time to think about appealing against the decision but “would look into it”.

“Things happen for you and against you so I am going to keep my opinion and talk about the performance of the boys. We should talk about the warriors on the pitch.

“It really doesn’t matter what I feel. I need to coach. I try not to speak too much about decisions.”
