Plymouth are coming on strong as we enter the last 10 minutes of the match. They have a free-kick in Sunderland’s half. The Black Cats need to defend this!

Sunderland win another corner after decent work from Dajaku. Embleton to take it. Another penalty shout is waved away as Stewart is brought down. Dajaku then curls a shot wide. Pritchard comes off for Aiden O’Brien.

Winchester bursts into the box but is tackled at the death.

Just under 20 minutes to go at the Stadium of Light. Sunderland lead 2-1. Can they hang on as Plymouth look for an equaliser?
