- 41' Coventry City FC is showing some good football. However, Coventry City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 42' Poor challenge from Tyler Morton. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 45' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Fabio Carvalho on 45 minutes.
- 46' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Fabio Carvalho makes it 1-2.
- 46' Ellis Simms is replacing Jake Bidwell for the Coventry City FC side.

- 83' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Luis Binks suffering a number of foals already.
- 88' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- Hull City AFC celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
