Chapitre 61: Super Sub (2)

After the opener from Omari, Sunderland played like men possessed. They had very lengthy spells of possession, occasionally putting in some shots. It was a sight that no one thought that they were going to witness throughout the course of this game, Sunderland were actually pressuring Middlesbrough!

61'

Sunderland got another chance to score. Thomas Jarell (Left Midfielder) got the ball from Jack and started a counter attack. He dribbled down the left flank before playing a low searching cross into the box. Adam Vritzler (Sunderland centre forward) managed to connect with the cross but Ayanfe palmed it away from the post.

The referee blew his whistle and pointed at the corner flag.

The corner was brief and short. A cross was played into the Middlesbrough penalty box. Ekon easily rose highest and headed the ball away from the goal post.
