  • 1 of Defoe's goals were offside and Naughton's red card was at best just a foul. Graham Scott needs to learn the only teams the officials should shaft in this league are anybody who plays Man Utd. Didn't get the memo obviously. Is this the first time a keeper has got an error leading to a goal and an assist in the same match, WhoScored?

  • Very good win for Sunderland.

  • It would be in my team's best interest if both teams draw. 1-1
