Impregnable Eldin Jakupovic helps Hull to a crucial point at Old Trafford

Hull City collected their first league point at Old Trafford since 1924 after doggedly holding out for a 0-0 draw with Manchester United.

Jose Mourinho's side could feel aggrieved after dominating long spells of the game but the Tigers were worthy of reward for their resilience alone. Marco Silva is doing plenty right during his first month in English football, nurturing belief that this troubled season can yet end with survival.

Eldin Jakupovic's saves to deny Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba and Juan Mata were the stand-out moments.

Positives

The last time Hull City drew 0-0 with Manchester United, it was the result that confirmed relegation from the Premier League on the final day of the 2014-15 season.
