Summarised from 4 outlets · Updated 25 Oct, 16:56 · Archive

Hull and Brentford drew 1-1, with Hull's winless run stretching to seven games despite maintaining their unbeaten home record.

Hull drew 1-1 with Brentford at the MKM Stadium on a day when Storm Boelo brought strong winds that carried balloons and litter on to the pitch during the opening minutes.

Oli McBurnie put Hull ahead from a 24th-minute penalty after Aaron Hickey flattened Tim Iroegbunam while trying to hook the ball away. McBurnie's goal was his first Premier League strike in over 900 days. Brentford's Caoimhin Kelleher guessed the direction of McBurnie's effort to the bottom right of the net but could not stop it.

Hull were undone by poor defending in the second half. Igor Thiago found Dango Ouattara, who scored under little pressure in the 63rd minute to level the match. Jaidon Anthony came close to a second Brentford goal but his attempts were either too wide or saved by Konstantinos Tzolakis. Hull's Mohamed Ali-Cho had a late chance in the 88th minute, but his shot from a Joe Gelhardt cross went wide.

The draw leaves Hull with an unbeaten home record this season but without a win in seven games. The Guardian reports that Hull's wait for an away win continues, though both outlets confirm they remain unbeaten at home.
