Hull City manager Sergej Jakirovic praised player Sorba Thomas after his serious crash, following a 2-2 draw with Chelsea. Thomas, 27, was signed in the summer and came off the bench in the match. He had suffered a serious accident near the club's training ground earlier in the week.
Thomas, who joined from Stoke, flipped his £60,000 Land Rover in the crash. Jakirovic compared Thomas to Max Verstappen, highlighting his performance despite the incident. The draw extended Hull City's unbeaten run since returning to the Premier League.
The match at Stamford Bridge was thrilling, with Joao Pedro scoring for Chelsea. Xabi Alonso's team was heavily favored, but Hull's resilience led to a point. The result keeps Hull's unbeaten streak alive.
The incident involving Thomas has raised concerns about player safety, with no immediate details on his condition. The club is expected to provide further updates.
