Tigers win to close on Cardiff

Cardiff’s lead at the top of the npower Championship was cut to five points by Hull after the Bluebirds were beaten 2-0 by Brighton.

Brighton went ahead two minutes before half-time.

Jose Ulloa whipped in a cross which found Andrea Orlandi in front of goal and he flicked the ball home with the outside of his foot. The Bluebirds hit the woodwork four times but it was the Seagulls who breached their opponents’ defence when Ulloa pounced in injury time.
