A desperate second half display from Hull City saw them throw away a halftime lead to lose 2-1 at Watford in a game they'll have plenty of regrets from.

Oli McBurnie's terrific goal after 25 minutes had City comfortably in front and the home fans chanting for the sacking of their manager, only to turn it around in the second half through Imran Louza and Vivaldo Semedo.

City did have openings in the second half, but the way they allowed the home side to dominate and create chances will be of concern to Sergej Jakirovic, who cut a frustrated figure on the touchline at points in the second period.

City made one change from the win over Southampton with Cody Drameh replacing the injured Mo Belloumi, while there was a return for Liam Millar to the bench after 11 months out with an ACL injury.
