Hull and Swansea earned valuable victories in their battle for English Premier League survival but Middlesbrough slid further towards the drop after a 4-0 hammering at Bournemouth. With four games remaining, 17th-placed Hull are one place above the drop zone with 33 points to the 31 of Swansea. Hull made sure of the points nine minutes later when Sam Clucas found the top corner with superb 30-metre shot. They have now won four consecutive home league games. We played with 10 players, but our boys were fantastic and they deserved it," Hull manager Marco Silva told the BBC.
