Comments:

League position: 17th This was the first time that Hull City had conceded a first minute then gone on to win the game since May 1982 at Rochdale in League Division Four. Gaston Ramirez's first goal for Hull City was their first in 333 minutes playing time in the Premier League. He also became the second player from Uruguay to score a Premier League goal on Boxing Day after current Sunderland manager Gus Poyet for Chelsea at Southampton in 1998.
