An error in the first half Anthony Patterson helped increase Hull’s chance to survive with a hard-earned 1-0 win at Light Stadium.
In the 18th minute, Patterson pulled the angle of Joe Gelhardt into his net, putting Hull on the fourth win in the last five games.
And Sunderland, who struggled to enter his rhythm after losing his rival rival Leeds on Monday, could not find the way and move on to consecutive defeats for the first time this season.
The Hull plan functioned perfectly in the first half. After withstanding some early Sunderland pressure, which did not result in the testing of goalkeeper Ivor Pandur, visitors quickly acquired the attack by confidence.
After Jobe Bellingham was robbed in possession after being on the edge of the area at one end, the tigers broke down and needed to do better when Matt Crooks decided to pass and would not shoot at the end of the counter.
It was the first sign of danger to the defense of Sunderland, and a few moments later Gelhardt twisted the effort in the hands of Patterson from 20 meters.
But soon after that, Patterson made a complete hash attempt to catch Gelhardt’s corner and helped him in the net, which was probably caught by a teammate by Patrick Roberts, attempting to approval in a close post.
The deeper corner of Gelhardt almost brought to the hull of a second in the 24th minute just because of the unpleasant Sunderland goalkeeper to get a fist to prevent the ball from preventing the curling straight.
The head of O’Nien’s port was correctly disabled by the offsed, and the closest Sunderland came to leveling before the break was when Dan Ballard went to Pandur’s arms from the delivery of Chris Rigg to the area.
Even after the re -launch, after the introduction of the wing player Sunderland Romaine Mundle for Enzo Le Fee, Hull first attacked. Steven Alzate shaved the side net after a counter-appearance that ended with the Sunderland Ballard defender, who came down the tunnel.
But Sunderland was supposed to be straight just before an hour when Wilson Isidor went wide to the last station after Hume selecting it unmarked.
Hull intentions were still clear. Crooks had a ball in the net with skillful return moves, but it was excluded for offsid after Patterson began to save to refuse Kyle Joseph.
Patterson made another top -notch salvation to stop the Lincoln rejected cross to fly straight in moments before Eliezer Mayena Sunderland lost the opportunity to level. The replacement missed the goal, with two other options, after Isidor conquered possession deep in Hull Pole.
And Hull frustrated Sunderland, who has now won only one of his last four home league games, during the final phase to sealed three points, despite the late effort of Patrick Roberts.
