Hull City manager Mike Phelan has described his side's 2-2 draw with Everton at the KCOM Stadium this evening as a "terrific point".
The Tigers climbed off the bottom of the table courtesy of the point, but had the opportunity to end their seven-match winless streak having led twice.
However, a bizarre own goal from David Marshall cancelled out Michael Dawson's opener before second-half goals from Robert Snodgrass and Ross Barkley.
"I think it's a terrific point. The goal we conceded at the end of the first half changes your whole way of thinking," Phelan told Sky Sports News.
"We produced a battling performance and I'm pleased with the players. We are in a battle for the rest of the season but we're up for it.
"Mistakes happen. I can remember many keepers and outfield players making mistakes. In the second half he pulled off a couple of important saves."
Hull will drop back to the bottom of the table if Swansea City avoid defeat against Bournemouth on New Year's Eve.
