Bottom of the table at the start of the day, substitute Mason Burstow brilliantly ended the rot with a swerving low hit from outside the area.
Selles must have earlier fancied his chances of a first win as new Hull manager when Joao Pedro scored after 32 minutes.
But his side’s inability to keep a clean sheet was again laid bare when desperate defending allowed Harry Darling to equalise with a smart header ten minutes later.
Selles said: “I think we played a really good game. We were clear in what we wanted, and we minimised our opponents.
“The victory is important but, for me, the most important thing is the performance.
Now we need to push forward and, from this, become a better team.”
