'We will use the break to recover' - reaction​

Hull head coach Sergej Jakirovic:

"Everyone was expecting three points, but I knew it would be a tough game as they are aggressive, dangerous on the counter-attack and difficult to break down.

"I'm very pleased with the boys. We left everything on the pitch because it was not easy.

"We will use this break for mental and physical recovery. We have played so many games with our problems and our injuries so they deserve this rest.

"We hope the international players come back healthy and then we have seven games. We must be ready for every one of the them – and we will be.

"But for seven days I don't want to see anyone. I will go back to Croatia, but I will not be able to switch off from football."

Jakirovic:'It was easy after we scored third goal'
Sheffield Wednesday boss Henrik Pedersen:

"We were top in the first half. We competed at a very high level.

"One of the reasons they are in the top six as that they are so strong in transition and high on the press – I think we handled that in a good way.

"We want to play with risks, but at the same time we had to think about defending against Hull in transition.

"It was a big theme before the game, and in many of the situations we handled it really well, but we were not good enough in two of the situations and that led to two goals.

"After their equaliser we came back strong, but to concede an own goal like that was tough for the boys.

"It hurts, but the reaction from the boys with how we came back in the game showed me that they never give up. They put everything on the pitch what they were able to do."
