Julio Enciso produced a moment of magic to rescue Ipswich a point in a thrilling 2-2 draw at Hull, whose wait for a Premier League victory stretched to seven games despite a spirited second-half fightback.

Ipswich had looked in control for much of the first half and deservedly led when Florentino fired home his first Premier League goal in the 22nd minute, latching on to Abdoul Ouattara's clever pass. Hull struggled to find a response before the break, failing to register a shot on target as Gary O'Neil's side dictated the tempo.

But the hosts emerged a different proposition after the interval. Tim Iroegbunam levelled in the 58th minute, racing through from halfway after being released by Oli McBurnie before calmly slotting past Christian Walton. Hull had their tails up and completed the turnaround 10 minutes later when McBurnie curled a superb free-kick into the bottom corner - his first direct free-kick goal in the Premier League.

The game was far from over, though. Enciso had other ideas, picking up the ball outside the area before dancing through the Hull midfield and unleashing an unstoppable left-footed strike into the top corner in the 74th minute. It was a fitting finish from a player who has made a habit of shooting from distance, and his second Premier League goal of the season ensured Ipswich left with a point.

Both sides pushed for a winner in a breathless finale, but neither could find one. Ipswich have now taken eight points from losing positions in the Premier League this season - more than any other side.

For all the character shown in turning the game around, meanwhile, Sergej Jakirovic's side were left to reflect on another opportunity to end their barren spell slipping away.
