Hull City and Manchester City had shared the points in a roller coaster of a game at the KC Stadium that eventually ended 2-2.
The home side started the brighter and forced City into gifting them the opener when Tal Ben Haim left his back pass short and Daniel Cousin capitalised to slip the ball under Joe Hart - who injured himself in the process and was forced off.
Hull defender Kamil Zayette then repaid the favour when he handed Manchester City an equaliser in the 36th minute.
Zayette had seemingly cleared up any danger after a Robinho through ball but instead of letting the ball run through to goalkeeper Boaz Myhill he dribbled the ball into the onrushing Stephen Ireland who slotted the ball into an empty net.
Ireland then claimed his second of the game when he majestically curled the ball around Myhill from the edge of the area nine minutes later.
Hull got themselves back into the game after a Geovanni free-kick wrong footed substitute keeper Kasper Schmeichel after deflecting off Vincent Kompany in the City wall.
In the end it was Geovanni who edged the battle of the Brazilians as he salvaged Hull an entertaining draw against his former club.
The home side began brightly and after 10 minutes they created a fine chance which was spurned by captain Ian Ashbee.
Sam Ricketts whipped in a cross from the left, allowing Dean Marney to cushion a first-time pass to Ashbee, who scuffed his effort low and wide.
