Hull are taking the Premiership by storm so far, this is an embarassing defeat for Arsenal especially at home, but hats off the the Yorkshire team who now lie sixth in the league.

Geovanni celebrates scoring his first goal for Hull Geovanni's second goal for his new club was a memorable effort

Two goals in four second-half minutes from Geovanni and Daniel Cousin earned Hull a famous away win over Arsenal.

The home side took the lead in the 47th minute when Cesc Fabregas's shot found the net via Paul McShane's legs.

But Hull hit back through Geovanni's brilliant 25-yard strike on 61 minutes before Cousin's well-placed glancing header from Andy Dawson's corner.

William Gallas clattered the crossbar in the 83rd minute before a brilliant late Boaz Myhill save denied Fabregas.

The final whistle was met by stunned silence from Arsenal's disbelieving fans, while the small contingent of travelling fans will return to East Yorkshire with the knowledge their team have climbed to sixth spot in the Premier League after their third - and most important - win of the season.

Hi man

I think Hull City are doing a great job in the premiership. If they continue in this form they can get a place in the Uefa Cup at the end of the season
