HULL City head coach Sergej Jakirovic says his side have to cut out the defensive errors after watching them throw away a halftime lead to lose 2-1 at Watford, admitting it was causing him genuine concern.

City were so in control in the first half and were in front when Oli McBurnie slammed in after 25 minutes with home fans calling for their head coach Paulo Pezzolano to be sacked as they were booed off.

The Tigers hit the post through McBurnie and Cody Drameh missed a gilt-edged chance to make it 2-0, but City were a different beast in the second half and struggled to get to grips with the Hornets, who created chances with alarming ease.

Imran Lauza levelled up on the hour with a cool finish, and Vivaldo Semedo made it 2-1 with 12 minutes to go, leaving City to reflect on a third league defeat.
