Jacob Greaves spoke of his immense pride after making his Hull City debut in the EFL Trophy defeat to Leicester City U21s.
The 19-year-old was one of seven debutants for the Tigers in their opening match of Northern Group H, which the Foxes won courtesy of a dubious last-minute penalty.
The Cottingham-born centre-back was disappointed by the result but delighted to make his first senior appearance in black and amber.
“To pull the shirt on for the first time in a competitive match, I was immensely proud,” said Greaves, who has been with the Club since the age of eight.
