Hull City boss Steve Bruce was delighted with two goal Dame N'Doye after victory at Crystal Palace.

''Doye wasted a hatful of chances before plundering a second-half double that cemented a vital 2-0 win at Selhurst Park on Saturday.

"He usually scores in batches, so he usually gets three or four goals in as many weeks, so let's hope that happens again now," said Bruce.

"This will give him the confidence that every striker needs.

"He's done terrific since he's walked through the door in January.

"Jelavic has only played 50 per cent of the games through his knee injury.

"You're only as good as what you put up front.

"Every team is well-drilled, well-organised, so you've got to take the chances when they come."
