Hull defender Dawson floored by Spurs defeat

Hull City defender Michael Dawson was gutted to lose to former club Tottenham.

Ex-Tottenham captain Dawson, who made the move to East Yorkshire in the summer, was crushed to be on the losing side against his old team-mates.

"Everybody knows what it meant to me to play in this game, and to lose in the way we did was a massive disappointment - especially after the first half," he said.

"The red card changed the game. It was going to be one-way traffic from there because Tottenham have some top players.

"Christian Eriksen's free-kick is something I used to see on a daily basis and then his finish in the last minute was top class.

"But at the end of the day we've come away with no points, so it is massively disappointing."
