The pass gets intercepted by one of the Derby players:

A pretty harmless situation, we have possession and Carter-Vickers passes the ball to Rodon:

Rodon makes a poor touch and loses the control over the ball. One of the Sheffield United's players (red arrow) presses high:

Rodon has enough time to pass the ball, but he is sloppy and loses the ball:

And Sheffield Wednesday scores:

We are one goal up and then this happens:

Hull recover the ball in their own half and attack:

The Hull player makes a forward run with the ball totally unchallenged.

Three Swansea players are around him and he is still allowed to run forward:

Hull's second goal is scored after a corner-kick to the far post (sounds familiar?).

Swansea players look uninterested, they are watching like statues:

In above screenshot we can see that nobody is marking the Hull player at the far post.

Fer reacts too late, the Hull player puts his elbow on Fer's shoulder, wins the areal duel and scores a looping header.

Conclusion: bad defending.​

This is Hull's third goal. After Hull's corner kick we make a clearance and Hull regains possession:

Screenshot 2019-05-25 at 03.03.21.png

We are in a chaotic shape defensively but still not in danger. There are four Hull players in off-side position:

Screenshot 2019-05-25 at 03.04.11.png

Jarrod Bowen is still allowed to run forward with the ball totally unchallenged:

Screenshot 2019-05-25 at 03.06.30.png

He sells a dummy to Matt Grimes and comes into a good shooting position:

A fine curling shot and he scores:

Conclusion: bad defending. Our players were too passive in the build up to this goal. Also hats off to Bowen for the shot and beautiful goal.​

Fer gets dispossessed in the middle of the pitch and Aston Villa are attacking:

We are in a good defensive shape and Tammy Abraham is man-marked. Notice how all our players are facing the goal and none of them is aware of Villa runners from the midfield:

Screenshot 2019-05-26 at 01.25.03.png

Suddenly, there is one Villa player at the edge of the six yards box ready to head the ball into the net.

He outjumps Naughton:
