Sunderland 1-2 Watford
Sunderland win a free-kick in a dangerous area again but it's disappointing from Enzo Le Fee, doesn't clear the first player.
Chris Rigg is struggling in the Sunderland midfield after an earlier challenge, looks like he will be going off imminently.

West Brom 0-0 Sheff Wed
Clash of heads between West Brom defender Kyle Bartley and Michael Ihiekwe as they challenged for an Albion corner.
They're both getting some treatment so we're held up briefly here for the time being.

Derek Payne
Former Watford midfielder on BBC Three Counties Radio
Sunderland are a young side and they get better as the game goes on.
The subs are going to be massive for Watford.

West Brom 0-0 Sheff Wed
The home side want a penalty for a handball in the area.
It does hit Max Lowe's arm to be fair but it's from close in.

YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:55 Greenwich Mean Time
Sunderland 1-2 Watford
Sunderland are calling for a penalty as Wilson Isidor fires over, with James Abankwah's arms around the Black Cats striker.
Nothing doing and there's probably a bit of both in that.
Enzo Le Fee then picks up a picking for sliding in on Mamadou Doumbia.

West Brom 0-0 Sheff Wed
Shea Charles pokes a low cross wide at the near post.
The Northern Ireland international is after a penalty for the contact on him from West Brom defender Kyle Bartley but, quite rightly, nothing doing.
Moments later sub Svante Ingelsson slices an effort high, wide and not handsome for the away side.
'Le Fee will move into the middle'published at 13:54 Greenwich Mean Time

Gary Bennett
Ex-Sunderland defender on BBC Radio Newcastle
Sunderland will put Enzo Le Fee in the middle and Milan Aleksic goes into the left and Ian Poveda on the right.
SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 13:53 Greenwich Mean Time

Sunderland 1-2 Watford
Frustrations are growing in the stands, they want to see more from their team.
Sunderland are unbeaten at the Stadium of Light this season but that impressive record is coming massively under threat.
Movement on the bench.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 13:48 Greenwich Mean Time
West Brom 0-0 Sheff Wed
The away side go to their bench for the second time and bring on Svante Ingelsson and Pol Valentin.

Sunderland 1-2 Watford
Decisive goalkeeping from Egil Selvick to come well our of his area and clear with Wilson Isidor chasing the through ball.
The pace has definitely quickened from the home side.
DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 13:46 Greenwich Mean Time
West Brom 0-0 Sheff Wed
Some delay here but no goal for Sheffield Wednesday!
Djedi Gassama's shot finds the bottom corner and he is off celebrating but a good 20 seconds after he has started celebrating the flag is up.
Looks like Josh Windass was offside in the middle and interfering with play.
Owls boss Danny Rohl is... Not best pleased.

Sunderland 1-2 Watford
Watford go to sleep again on the free-kick as it's swung in and finds the head of Sunderland centre-back Chris Mepham.
Luckily for the Hornets his looping header goes over, but it's a sign that Hornets defence still has vulnerabilities.
They could have further issues because Imran Louza isn't moving too well.
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 13:44 Greenwich Mean Time
West Brom 0-0 Sheff Wed
How has this not gone in?!
Sheffield Wednesday full-back Marvin Johnson is having some game this half.
First he denied a goal-bound shot a few minutes ago and now he's turned a cross on to his own post!
James Beadle throws himself on to the loose ball.
Postpublished at 13:43 Greenwich Mean Time
Sunderland 1-2 Watford
The goal scorer Imran Louza goes down under a challenge from Chris Rigg to loud boos from the home fans.
It was a soft one.
Enzo Le Fee is trying to make things happen on the left as the game starts to open up.
He's fouled by Louza and Sunderland have a free-kick. Better from the hosts.

West Brom 0-0 Sheff Wed
Back under way at The Hawthorns and the home side nearly break the deadlock immediately!
Marvin Johnson gets across to block Grady Diangana's goal-bound effort.

I'm still in awe of what I've just seen.
The finesse and precision from Imran Louza are simply off the scale.
The Stadium of Light is silent. Sunderland have dropped off so much since conceding the equaliser, they need to find something here to get back in this.

Still a long way to go.
Watford need to play game management.
They need to be mature now.
GOAL: Sunderland 1-2 Watfordpublished at 13:37 Greenwich Mean Time
Imran Louza (46 mins)

First-class in the first minute of the second half!
This. Is. Beautiful.
The ball comes to Imran Louza a long way out and he takes a touch to set himself and just curls it audaciously into the top corner. Inch perfect.
Some of the fans aren't even in their seats for it!
Now, what do Sunderland do?
