The Uruguayan hit the only goal of the game to seal three points for Aitor Karanka's man, who could have won by a more comfortable margin

Gaston Ramirez's second-half header proved enough for Middlesbrough to earn a deserved 1-0 Premier League victory over a toothless Hull City on Monday.

Boro completely dominated proceedings at the Riverside Stadium and had they shown more poise in the final third the margin of their win would have been more comfortable.

Alvaro Negredo missed Boro's best chance of the opening half, while Viktor Fischer saw a goal chalked off for offside.
