Ended 1-1 which I consider a good result for usHT at the Riverside: 'Boro 0:0 Sunderland. Competitive, end to end, without the final touch in the box. Early ascendency by Sunderland; 'Boro gradually seizing control as the half progressed. Sunderland's standout player so far, Abdullah Ba, was yellow carded for making a card gesture to the ref after being fouled; fortunately for him, it was his first of the game!
