Hull's bright start to life in the top flight continued as they earned a battling point at Blackburn.

But Hull drew level almost immediately when Richard Garcia looped a header over Paul Robinson and into the corner.

Steven Gerrard smashed in a 90th-minute drive as Liverpool came from behind to beat Middlesbrough at Anfield.
Striker Mido came off the bench to put the visitors ahead with a low, 30-yard drive on 70 minutes and it seemed his side were heading for victory.

Second-half goals by Leon Osman and Ayegbeni Yakubu were enough to give Everton an unlikely win over West Brom.
