Match in Five Sentences: Hull City lost 3-1 to Queens Park Rangers. Paddy McNair put through his own net in the 21st minute to hand the visitors the lead. Joe Gelhardt equalised for Hull (39.), but substitute Daniel Bennie restored the advantage with a top-corner strike from outside the box (84.) before Richard Kone sealed it in the fifth minute of second half stoppage time. Queens Park Rangers produced eight shots on target from 12 attempts, a clinical edge that told. Queens Park Rangers rise from 13th to 10th and visit Southampton next, while Hull remain fifth and host Derby.

Player of the Match: Richard Kone led the line superbly, scoring the stoppage-time clincher, hitting four shots on target from five attempts and winning 10 aerial duels.

Stat of the Match: Ivor Pandur made six saves, keeping Hull in contention until the late goals.

Three Things We Learned: Bennie's cameo changed the game, his long-range strike re-establishing the lead for the visitors. Hull had 59.2% possession and eight corners but managed only four shots on target against a compact back line. Kone's constant outlet play, including eight touches in the box and four shots on target, ensured the points were safe late on.
