There was little between the sides for long stretches, and the first notable incident arrived when Lewie Coyle went into the book after just over nine minutes. That set the tone for a scrappy opening period, but neither team could force a breakthrough before the interval and the score remained 0-0 at the break.
Hull reshaped things immediately after halftime, sending on Lucas Gourna-Douath for Hidemasa Morita and Cody Drameh for Coyle. The visitors continued to walk a disciplinary line, with Regan Slater booked at 50' and Elliot Stroud shown yellow at 53' before both sides turned to their benches again.
Coventry responded with changes of their own, introducing Tatsuhiro Sakamoto and Brandon Thomas-Asante before later calling on Victor Torp, Gustavo Hamer and Ethan Pinnock. Hull also freshened up, with Liam Millar among the second-half introductions - a move that delivered the decisive moment.
The match highlights came in the 81st minute, when Mohamed Belloumi set up Millar for the only goal of the game. Aurele Amenda was then booked for the hosts before Hull saw out the closing stages. In the immediate summary, Hull finished the day second in the table on six points from two matches, while Coventry sat 18th after back-to-back defeats.
