Defeat leaves troubled Hull facing another cup final

Tottenham 2 Hull 0: What a difference a year makes. This time 12 months ago Hull City were competing in their first FA Cup final at Wembley.

This defeat at White Hart Lane has provided Steve Bruce’s side with another cup final, except this time the prize on offer is not the FA Cup but Premier League survival.

Even a victory over Manchester United on Sunday would not necessarily hoist them out of the bottom three, with Bruce’s side also relying on Newcastle and Sunderland failures.
