Man City's Dickov hits superb Blackpool double

Manchester City striker Paul Dickov struck twice for loan club Blackpool in their victory over Hull City.

Dickov seized on an error by keeper Bo Myhill to score the first and then lobbed Myhill for the second after a clever piece of ball juggling.

Caleb Folan and Dean Windass put Hull back in the game as Blackpool finished with 10 men after defender Kaspars Gorkss was sent off for a second bookable offence.

Hull manager Phil Brown said: "We showed great character to fight back."

Blackpool manager Simon Grayson said of Dickov: "He showed great anticipation for the first and then a piece of skill that was straight out of the Premier League."
