Jude Bellingham eyes Tyler Morton display as Hull City show frustrating side once again
City’s hopes of a response to their Bristol City defeat were dashed by a winger they know well
Billed as a blockbuster occasion before kick-off, Hull City’s Boxing Day contest with Sunderland failed to live up to that pre-match billing until Jack Clarke rattled in a terrific winning goal eight minutes from time to seal a narrow 1-0 success
City had been sluggish for much of a drab contest in front of a sold-out MKM Stadium and saw the visitors pass up some glorious opportunities before Aaron Connolly fluffed the Tigers’ biggest moment at the start of the second half.
That was until substitute Cyrus Christie allowed Clarke to cut inside and fire the winning goal into the bottom corner of Matt Ingram’s net, condemning City to a second consecutive Championship defeat having lost at Bristol City on Friday evening.

The possession stats will say City had more of the ball than their visitors, but most of it was in their own half going between Alfie Jones and Jacob Greaves – both of whom were excellent by the way – they just could not get in behind a really tight back 11 as it was at times when Sunderland were defending.
