Hull City secured a 1-0 victory over Sheffield United at the MKM Stadium on Saturday, thanks to David Akintola's first goal of the season, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
Akintola netted the winner on the half-hour mark after Lewie Coyle's assist set him up for a clinical finish.
The 29-year-old winger, who joined Hull City on a free transfer in the summer, has now made seven appearances for the Tigers.

Akintola was replaced by Matt Crooks in the 62nd minute, while fellow Nigerian international Semi Ajayi came on as a substitute for Oliver McBurnie with eight minutes remaining, marking his return from injury.
The win will boost Hull City's confidence as they look to climb the Championship table.
