  • Intro:

    Reaction after Leicester City defeat Hull City 1-0 in the Premier League.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Nigel Pearson, Leicester City manager: (on what emotion he's feeling after the win)

    "Relief. It's going to be. It's been such a long time since we've been talking about winning a game. And I've certainly got... I know how Steve (Bruce) will be feeling today because, you know, there's no doubt that they would probably win more games than draw or lose if they put teams under that sort of pressure. But we know that feeling ourselves, we've had... I can't even remember how long it is now, it's been such a long time since we've won a game, but, you know, we've played some really good football and deserve to have more points than we do..."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Steve Bruce, Hull City manager:

    "Well I think we've been in the Premier League now for 18 months, I can't remember having so many chances in a game. Not at this level. But the one thing you have to do is score, so whether we were a bit unlucky, we should be scoring, but we've hit the post twice, I think it's been off the line three or four times and it turns into one of them awful afternoons where you don't deserve to get beat. The only shot we've had at our goal they've scored from. The disappointing thing for me was the first half, in particular, after the way we played at Sunderland, we gave the ball away far too cheaply, in the first half in particular, especially after the way we had played at Sunderland, so that was a disappointment, but then again, we've missed a wonderful chance in the first half with (Ahmed) Elmohamady. When we miss chances like that it does heap the pressure on you, (it's) been one of them frustrating afternoons."
