Jozy gets first!

26.08.09 Andrew Slevison
Jozy Altidore scored his first goal for Hull City in their 3-1 Carling Cup over Southend United on Tuesday night.
The US international, who is on loan with the Tigers, netted in the 42nd minute with a brilliant 30-yard shot after a free-kick to give his side a 2-0 lead after Tom Carney scored seven minutes into the contest.
Southend’s Franck Moussa got one abck on the stroke of half-time.
Brazilian winger Geovanni did however, manage to extend the Tigers lead eighteen minutes from time to ease any nerves.
Hull boss Phil Brown was excited by Altidore when he spoke after the match.
"The biggest bonus of the night wasn't just the fact some young lads have made their debuts and done well, it was getting 90 minutes out of Jozy Altidore,” Brown said.
"He hit the winning goal and he's probably still suffering from jetlag having arrived on Friday.
"He played a full competitive game - and it was competitive, Southend were no slouches."
