'I expect high standards of myself' - Hume

Sunderland defender Trai Hume netted the only goal in Sunderland's victory over Millwall on Saturday - and it's a goal Hume has been patiently been waiting for.

"I wouldn't say I'm fully critical of myself but I know I expect high standards of myself - and I know I could have had more - but I was lucky the chance today was easy enough to put in the net," Hume told BBC Radio Newcastle.

The game was extra special for the Northern Ireland international, whose family made a rare attendance to see Hume score the winner.

"It's the sacrifices you have to make to do what you want to do," Hume added.

"It's hard whenever it's your birthday, your family can't come over, or it's Christmas and they've obviously got to spend it at home.

"It is difficult times, it is lonely but that's part of the parcel of football.

"Mum and dad, auntie and uncle - all four of them were up there. So, I'm glad to score for them and I'm pretty sure they will be happy."
