Huddlestone says Hull "devastated" over Euro exit

Tom Huddlestone admits the Hull City locker room has been hit hard by their Europa League exit.

They were FA Cup finalists in May but failed to progress to the Europa League group stage after exiting on away goals to Belgian side Sporting Lokeren on Thursday.

"The lads are devastated," Huddlestone admitted. "We obviously won the game but away goals are cruel. Seeing the Europa League draw was when it fully sunk in.

"But we need to be straight back on it. As devastating as Thursday night was, having a game two or three days later is the perfect way to bounce back and get it out of your system."
