The second half was marked by a flurry of yellow cards. Hull captain Lewie Coyle went into the referee’s book in the 53rd minute, followed six minutes later by teammate Sergej Jakirović. Coventry’s Matt Grimes was then cautioned in the 61st minute as the game grew increasingly combative in midfield.

Both managers turned to their benches in an attempt to tilt the match. Coventry made a double change on 64 minutes, introducing Ellis Simms for Haji Wright and Jack Rudoni for Victor Torp. Hull responded with a triple substitution in the 74th minute, sending on Lewis Koumas, John Lundstram and Mohamed Belloumi in place of Toby Collyer, Joe Gelhardt and Liam Millar. Late on, Kyle Joseph replaced Matt Crooks for Hull in the 83rd minute, while Coventry brought on Jahnoah Markelo for Tatsuhiro Sakamoto in the 90th minute.

Despite the tactical reshuffles, neither side could find a decisive moment in the closing stages, and the match ended scoreless. No goal scorers, shots figures, or further match events beyond the listed bookings and substitutions were available from the official data.
