ALUKO SNATCHES VICTORY FOR HULL CITY

Sone Aluku proved Hull's hero after netting a late second-half winner against Fulham on Wednesday



Omatsone Aluko popped with a late winner to give Hull City a 2-1 win over Fulham in the English Championship.

In a game featuring three players eligible for Nigeria in Moses Odubajo,Omatsone Aluko and Chuba Akpom who was substituted in the 71st minute it was Aluko the more illustrious of the trio that decided the encounter. 

Aluko tip to depart Hull City before the end of the current transfer window popped up Aluko pouncing on a loose ball in an 86th minute scramble to hit a close-range winner as the hosts showed the kind of character required to mount a sustained promotion challenge from the Championship.


The goal was his first goal since the 3rd of December when he scored for Hull City in a 1-1 draw with Everton in a premiership game last season.

However any hope of the man who have 2 goals for Nigeria at full international level from 5 games playing for the Super Eagles again is a distant reality as new manager Sunday Oliseh has ruled out players not playing in top division league abroad away from the national team for now.
