OLI McBurnie admits coming off the pitch with a goal and assist masked what he felt was a frustrating personal performance for Hull City against Southampton.

McBurnie's clever header laid it on a plate for John Lundstram to smash in the second before he headed in Ryan Giles’ free-kick to put City 3-0 up against Southampton, before Adam Armstrong netted a 95th-minute consolation.

The striker took his tally of Championship goals for the season to three with as many assists in a deserved victory against the Saints, who dominated the ball without posing any significant threat to the hosts.

McBurnie was a constant threat up the top of the pitch and delivered an impressive showing, although the striker felt he was a tad under-par.
