Steve Bruce hails "great victory" against Liverpool

Steve Bruce expresses his delight after Hull City claim a 1-0 victory over Liverpool to boost their hopes of avoiding relegation.

Hull City manager Steve Bruce has said that his side have given themselves an "outstanding chance" of Premier League survival following their 1-0 victory over Liverpool this evening.

A goal from Michael Dawson was enough to see the Tigers win the match and move four points clear of the relegation zone.

"It is a great victory - make no bones about it," Bruce told Sky Sports News. "But we have still got a bit to do, I don't think 34 points is enough.

"We have given ourselves an outstanding chance but that is all it is. We have earned back to back wins and two clean sheets, we showed some of the resilience we have shown over the last few years since I've been here. So it is a big step in the right direction.

"I always knew we had four matches at home out of our last five, Arsenal and Man Utd at home and also Burnley who are fighting like us. It is never easy in the Premier League against anyone but home advantage can give you an advantage. The win stands us in good stead but we have got Arsenal on Monday night so have to be at our best again."

Hull have now claimed back-to-back league wins for only the second time this season.
