Milton Keynes Dons 1 - Hull City 1


Delroy Facey's late strike earned high-flying Hull a point in a 1-1 draw with battling MK Dons at the National Hockey Stadium.

Hull were quick out of the blocks on a snow-coated pitch and Danny Allsopp should have given them the lead just 40 seconds in, but fired wide from eight yards after Robbie Stockdale's cross caused panic in the Dons' defence. Allsopp came close again for Hull eight minutes later, turning Leon Crooks in the box before fizzing a drive just past the far post.

Hull were made to pay when Lewington put the home side ahead five minutes after the re-start. Hull seeemed to have quite a few chances, they just didn't seem to be able to convert many of them! Oh well, I suppose the pitch slippery and dis have a covering of snow, so I suppose a draw isn't that bad!

However, it looks almost certain that Luton are going to win league 1 now which doesn't bother me as long as Hull can get back to back promotions I am not bothered what position they take!
