Hull City Fight Back Twice to Draw 2-2 at Sheffield Wednesday

The draw preserves Hull's top-four spot, prolonging Wednesday's home drought.

Overview

  • Svante Ingelsson and Bailey Cadamarteri scored for Wednesday, with Mo Belloumi and Matt Crooks providing Hull’s equalisers in each half.
  • Hull stay fourth after missing the chance to go third, while Wednesday move to minus eight points and remain winless at home in 16 league games.
  • Belloumi left late with what appeared to be a hamstring issue, as Hull continue to manage absences for John Lundstram, Joe Gelhardt and Eliot Matazo with Semi Ajayi on international duty.
  • The Boxing Day derby drew 27,929 to Hillsborough, including about 3,900 travelling Hull supporters.
  • Administrators named a consortium led by James Bord as Wednesday’s preferred bidder on Christmas Eve as the club pursues a takeover.
