Swansea City 2-2 Hull City: Post-match review, Stats, Key moments

Dive into Coral’s post-match review of Swansea City 2-2 Hull City in the Championship on Saturday, 13 September 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.

Swansea City and Hull City played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at the Swansea.com Stadium. The hosts took the lead through Žan Vipotnik's goal just before halftime, but Hull City responded immediately with Oliver McBurnie's equalizer. Swansea regained the lead early in the second half thanks to Ronald Pereira Martins, only for John Egan to score a dramatic equaliser in the 97th minute. Given Swansea's recent form, which included a win and two draws, the result might be seen as slightly disappointing, but it extends their unbeaten run to four matches. Hull City, on the other hand, will be pleased to have ended a two-game losing streak with this hard-fought point.

The statistics from the match reflect Swansea City's dominance in possession, with 66% compared to Hull City's 34%. Despite this, Hull City managed to secure a draw, which is somewhat surprising given the disparity in ball control. Swansea also had more corners (5 to 2) and a higher successful dribble percentage (56% to 46%), indicating they were the more attacking side. However, Hull City's resilience was evident, particularly with their late equaliser, showing that the stats don't always tell the full story of a match's outcome.

The game's momentum shifted several times due to key moments. Swansea took the lead just before halftime when Žan Vipotnik scored in the 40th minute, but Hull City quickly responded with Oliver McBurnie's goal in the 45th minute. Early in the second half, Ronald Pereira Martins put Swansea back in front with a goal in the 57th minute, which seemed to set them on course for victory. However, Hull City's John Egan had other ideas, scoring a dramatic equaliser in the 97th minute, which ultimately secured a point for the visitors.

Swansea City lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Lawrence Vigouroux in goal and a back four of Josh Key, Ben Cabango, Cameron Burgess, and Josh Tymon. The midfield was anchored by Gonçalo Franco and Ethan Galbraith, with Ronald, Malick Yalcouyé, and Zeidane Inoussa supporting striker Žan Vipotnik. The impact of substitutions was notable, with Adam Uche Idah and Ji-Sung Eom coming on in the 64th minute, and Liam Cullen and Melker Widell later in the game. Vipotnik and Ronald were particularly influential, scoring the goals that kept Swansea in the lead for much of the match.

Hull City also deployed a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Ivor Pandur between the posts and a defense consisting of Lewie Coyle, John Egan, Charlie Hughes, and Ryan Giles. The midfield duo of Amir Hadziahmetovic and John Lundstram supported the attacking trio of Babajide David Akintola, Joe Gelhardt, and Kyle Joseph, with Oliver McBurnie leading the line. Hull made six substitutions throughout the game, with Mohamed Elbachir Belloumi and Regan Slater coming on in the 64th minute, followed by Joel Tshisanga Ndala, Darko Gyabi, and Enis Destan. McBurnie and Egan were crucial, scoring the goals that earned Hull a valuable point.

Oliver McBurnie is Coral’s Man of the Match for his performance against Swansea City. He scored a crucial goal in the 45th minute, which kept Hull City in the game after they had fallen behind. Despite not registering any assists or big chances created, McBurnie's three key passes highlight his involvement in Hull's attacking play, making him a deserving recipient of the award.
