Nigeria international Semi Ajayi is happy with Hull City's reaction to their last defeat. The Tigers managed a 1-1 draw against Brentford at the MKM Stadium on Sunday, as reported by PUNCH Sports Extra.
“It’s important that we had a good bounce back from last week, we did that,” Ajayi told Sky Sports after the match.
Ajayi welcomed the team's response but said Hull was disappointed not to take all three points at home. “We are definitely disappointed not to come away with the three points, but a point at home is always positive,” he said.
The defender played a big part in helping Hull earn the draw. He had a solid defensive performance against Brentford, winning two Man of the Match awards.
Ajayi won five of the six tackles he attempted, made four clearances, recorded five recoveries, and completed two interceptions. This showed how much he helped Hull contain their opponents.
His strong performance earned him the Premier League Player of the Match award. He also won Hull’s club award after getting 43.6 percent of the votes, finishing ahead of Oli McBurnie, Tim Iroegbunam, and Lewis Coyle.
The draw allowed Hull to regain some momentum after losing to Fulham. Ajayi’s comments highlight the need to respond well instead of letting one bad result affect their next games.
For the Tigers, the goal now is to build on the draw against Brentford and turn their performances into wins as they aim to stay in the Premier League.
