Hull City secured a significant 4-1 victory over Rotherham United on Tuesday night, propelling them into the Championship play-off positions. The Tigers dominated the entire match, establishing a commanding three-goal lead by halftime and adding a fourth shortly after the break.
The standout performer for Hull City was 21-year-old winger Jaden Philogene, a former Aston Villa player who showcased exceptional form by scoring twice in the game, bringing his season goal tally to six in 12 Championship appearances. Described as a revelation since his arrival, Philogene received a perfect 10/10 rating from Hull Live, with journalist Barry Cooper praising his incredible contributions, including a remarkable backheel for the second goal and another goal early in the second half.
Cooper’s high praise underscores Philogene’s impact on Hull City’s success this season. With six goals and five assists, Philogene has emerged as a key player under manager Liam Rosenior, solidifying his position as one of the club’s most crucial assets and arguably one of the Championship’s top performers.
Currently occupying 6th place in the Championship table, Hull City is well-positioned for a strong promotion push, with Philogene playing a central role in their aspirations. Despite the potential interest from other clubs, Philogene is under contract until 2026, having only joined in the summer, giving Hull the luxury of not needing to sell the player. The hope is that this marks the beginning of a promising career in Hull City’s colors, providing fans with the joy of watching one of the Championship’s best players.
