Half time
HALF-TIME: HULL 0-0 MIDDLESBROUGH. Referee Steve Tanner brings the first half to a close. Geovanni has been at the centre of most of the action, missing three good chances, but both sides will have to improve their finishing in the second half.
42
Geovanni has another header but it is no better than his last effort as it goes well well wide, he could have had a hat-trick already.
40
A nice idea by Hull as Dean Marney's corner is played right out to George Boateng on the edge of the area but he mis-hits his shot and it eventually finds the gloves of Turnbull with Nicky Barmby sliding in.
37
There has been a lot of effort by both sides but little quality so far, espcially in the final third of the pitch.
34
Geovanni is the man of them moment as he has another shot on goal, but it is half blocked by David Wheater and is easily collected by Ross Turnbull
32
Geovanni is involved again as his 25 yard free-kick is deflected wide for a corner.
30
Geovanni misses a gilt edged chance for Hull as his header hits the side of his head and spins so wide it nearly goes out for a throw in. Bad miss by the Brazilian
26
Phil Brown is not a happy man as he continues to bark instructions to his players, his side are lacking a cutting edge at the moment.
23
Marlon King breaks into the box but Aliadiere does well to track back and tackle the Hull striker.
21
Geovanni is starting to look lively as the game begins to open up, but after first misplacing a pass he then fires a shot over the bar.
18
Hull Manager shakes his head as Paul McShane gives the ball away cheaply, the Tigers are yet to get going as yet.
13
Its all very tight in midfield at the moment, Middlesbrough have perhaps had the best of it but no real chances for either side so far.
11
Middlesbrough contniue to come forward as Justin Hoyte crosses low but the Hull defence see it out for a goal-kick. Good start by the visitors.
8
Stewart Downing cuts inside and fires a shot in but it's straight at Boaz Myhill. The England winger has looked dangerous so far
6
Geovanni skips past five players but then loses control of the ball, an early glimpse of the Brazilians flair and a warning for Middlesbrough
2
Good start for Middlesbrough, they are all over Hull in the opening minutes. Jeremie Aliadiere had the best chance but Sam Ricketts did well to close him down
