Hull 1-2 Blackburn

Blackburn dragged themselves clear of the relegation zone with a hard-fought victory away to out-of-form Hull.

Stephen Warnock profited from Matt Duke's fumble and Keith Andrews steered home from close-range before the break.

The visitors' win seemed secure when Dean Marney was dismissed, but Morten Gamst Pedersen's second yellow raised the hopes for the Hull faithful.

Ian Ashbee's volley halved the deficit and fuelled belief, but Blackburn stood firm against his side's late barrage.
