Half-Time Report: Hull City ahead at 10-man Sunderland

Shane Long scores in the 17th minute to put Hull City 1-0 ahead at Sunderland, who had Wes Brown sent off early on.

Hull City are 1-0 up against 10-man Sunderland at half time in their Premier League clash at the Stadium of Light.

The Black Cats were on the back foot right from the start as they were reduced to 10 men after just four minutes.

Wes Brown was shown a straight red card for bringing down Shane Long on the edge of the Sunderland penalty area with a late sliding tackle.

That gave visiting Hull the initiative, and they duly capitalised on their numerical advantage on 17 minutes.

The ball fell to Jake Livermore outside the box following a corner, and he played it back into the area for Long to head home from close range.

Nikica Jelavic was unlucky not to open his account for Hull when Vito Mannone tipped his close-range header onto the post, before Long rattled the frame of the Sunderland goal from almost 30 yards.
