HULL boss Phil Brown hailed Jussi Jaaskelainen's display as world class after watching the Bolton keeper condemn his side to a third defeat in a row.
Matthew Taylor struck the only goal in 50 minutes from the edge of the area.
But it was a series of stops from Jaaskelainen that sealed the points for the Trotters.
Brown said: "He had one of those days. But he is a worldclass keeper, one of the best in the league, and I've nothing but admiration for him."
