Hull City too good for Chesterfield

Hull City have come from behind to claim a 3-1 victory in their pre-season friendly against Chesterfield this evening.

The hosts took the lead in the 18th minute when Ian Evatt powered in a header from Tendayi Darikwa's cross.

Sam Hird almost grabbed a second for the Spireites, but after connecting with Dan Gardner's free kick, he flicked a header just over the bar.

Hull soon began to take charge of the match and they levelled the score in the 37th minute when Harry Maguire headed in at the back post from Robbie Brady's corner.

The teams headed into the break on level terms, but six minutes into the second half Andy Robertson fired the Tigers ahead with a powerful strike from a tight angle.

The visitors continued to dominate and Calaum Jahraldo-Martin curled in a third goal to complete the victory.
