Hull City manager Sergej Jakirovic, talking to Match of the Day:"They overloaded us in the midfield in the first half and that was the biggest problem. After 30 minutes we did it with [John] Egan into midfield and we showed a bit more.
"At half-time we changed the system and started to be much more aggressive and on the front foot as a group.
"[Julio] Enciso scored an excellent goal but we could stop this, it was a cheap goal [to concede] as we had the ball twice in possession. We couldn't play as bad as in the first half but I could say that's the quality of the opponent.
"At 2-1, maybe we could've controlled it better. If you can't win, don't lose, especially after the first half and we improved a lot. I'm waiting for a win for almost two months, which is unbelievable."
