Tigers tamed by Black Cats
Darren Bent continued his resurgence as he claimed a double to help Sunderland to a comprehensive 4-1 victory over Hull.
The former Tottenham striker, who endured a miserable spell at White Hart Lane, took his tally for his new club to four with a 13th-minute penalty and a 66th-minute solo effort as the Black Cats eased past the Tigers.
Steve Bruce's men always had too much for the visitors, who had got themselves back into the game with Kamil Zayatte's 43rd-minute header.
But Andy Reid's 49th-minute strike set the stage for Bent to cement the win, and Michael Turner - making his debut against the side who sold him to Sunderland - forced Zayatte to put through his own net for the fourth 14 minutes from time to rub salt into Hull's wounds.
The home fans among a crowd of 38,997 headed home eagerly anticipating clashes with promoted Burnley and Wolves in their side's next two league games, while the visitors left contemplating a long, tough winter.
