Sunderland returned to winning ways by beating Sheffield Wednesday 2-1 on Friday night
Eliezer Mayenda’s brace saw a much-changed Sunderland side secure a crucial win at Hillsborough on Friday night.
Here’s how we rated the Black Cats…
1. Anthony Patterson
Not a great deal he could do about the goal and made one very smart save from Ingelsson to prevent the hosts taking the lead. Important moment in the game. 7 | Sunderland’s Anthony Patterson
2. Leo Hjelde
Perhaps fortunate not to be penalised for a handball inside his own box early on. Played a good ball forward for Mayenda’s opener and generally steady defensively. Decent showing given his lack of minutes.
3. Trai Hume
Missed a few tackles you would expect him to make but really dug in and his assist for Mayenda’s goal was an absolute beauty. A real moment of quality in an otherwise poor game.
4. Chris Mepham
Steady for the most part but lost the ball too easily from Sunderland’s throw for Paterson’s goal.
