Hull unlucky as Aston Villa go through

Gareth Barry’s deflected 61st-minute strike saw off unlucky Hull and sent Aston Villa into the FA Cup fourth round at the KC Stadium.

Barry’s long-range effort caught defender Leon Cort’s thigh and looped up and over the helpless Boaz Myhill into the back of the City net.

Five minutes earlier Lee Hendrie had been forced to boot off the line to deny Cort at the other end while substitute Stuart Elliott flashed an equalising chance just wide.
