Pourquoi c'est important
Hull FC were looking to move into the top half of Super League with a win, while Toulouse came into the match on a seven-game losing streak.
Hull FC missed the chance to move into the top half of Super League after slipping to a hugely disappointing home defeat by struggling Toulouse. A flat and predictable performance from Hull in attack presented the French side with the opportunity to put an end to a run of seven straight defeats and they took it with a gutsy display at the MKM Stadium. Two tries in the opening 10 minutes from full-back Olly Ashall-Bott down the left and loose-forward Joe Cator gave Toulouse a lead which they defended with relish in the greasy conditions. Hull, who hit back with a first-half try from Tom Briscoe, could not find a way through Toulouse's rearguard after the break in a scoreless second period as the French side chalked up a first win over the Black and Whites in their history.
