Hull City player ratings including the smart finisher who did not get enough chances
Hull City dropped out of the Championship play-off places after a 2-2 draw at Leicester City.
The result saw the Foxes relegated to League One 10 years after they won the Premier League and five years after lifting the FA Cup but of far more concern to the Tigers was throwing away a lead for the fourth time in five matches to drop out of the top six with only two matches of the regular season to play.
Ivor Pandur – made a couple of saves and nearly got his hand to the penalty 7
Lewie Coyle – a poor night for the captain 5
Semi Ajayi – one fantastic tackle in stoppage-time but part of a defence that was too wide open far too often in the final half-hour in particular 6
John Egan – missed a glorious chance late on 6
Ryan Giles – unable to cause problems going forward or help out enough defensively on his return to the side 6
Matt Crooks – a backheeled shot at goal could have been brilliant, but Hull were overrun in midfield 6


John Lundstram – started scratchily but picked out some wonderful passes when he warmed up 7
Mohamed Belloumi – was a real threat until he came off at the break with a hamstring problem 7
Joe Gelhardt – did not bring his quality to bear on a night when his team needed it 5
Liam Millar – caused problems getting in behind but his classy goal was the exception to the rule when it came to finishing 7


Oli McBurnie – an excellent finish to equalise but once again, the Tigers did not create enough for him 7
Substitutes:
Lewis Koumas (for Belloumi, HT) – Hull were unhappy with the penalty he conceded, but without his rashness, Thomas Kirk could not have given it 5
Regan Slater (for Millar, 72) – the game was helter-skelter by the time he came on 5
Yu Hirakawa (for Lundstram, 72) – one of many feeling their way back to fitness at a critical time 5
Kyle Joseph (for Gelhardt, 82) – a lovely ball played Egan for a late chance the defender missed 6
Paddy McNair (for Giles, 89) – N/A
Not used: Hughes, Matazo, Phillips, Jacob.
