Hull City secured a crucial 3-1 victory over relegated Sheffield Wednesday at the MKM Stadium, boosting their Sky Bet Championship play-off ambitions. The Tigers were far from perfect but showed resilience to overcome an early shock when Jamal Lowe opened the scoring for the visitors after 23 minutes.

Hull responded instantly through Matt Crooks, who equalised just 60 seconds later, setting the tone for what became a comfortable afternoon. The home side's momentum stalled briefly following an injury to Regan Slater, but they regained control before halftime when Dominic Iorfa headed into his own net from Kyle Joseph's free-kick.

Hull sealed the win when Joseph finished coolly on 58 minutes, capitalizing on a defensive error by Wednesday. The result leaves Sheffield Wednesday with just one point from their last 16 league games, highlighting their struggles in a disastrous season. For Hull, the victory keeps them firmly in the play-off race as they push for promotion back to the Premier League.
