Sunderland 0-2 Norwich
Norwich get their foot on it.
"Calm down lads." Alex Neil is still in control - he is yet to lose an away game since taking over as Norwich boss in January.
Impressive, this 34-year-old. The youngest in the league.

Younes Kaboul - he was signed for his ability in the air, no?
A Sunderland corner, a bit of momentum building, and he clears it out like a pro. Great defending, exactly when the Black Cats didn't need it.

Danny Graham is offside in his first real involvement since coming on at half-time. John Ruddy did really well to get off his line so fast and block anyway though.

Steven Fletcher seems to have picked up a bit of a knock. Premier League debut for Duncan Watmore?
The 21-year-old is warming up in case Fletcher can't continue.

Alex Tettey. Now is there any need for that? With his team two up he clatters into Jermain Defoe - in no kind of space - and picks up a yellow.
Silliness.

So an extra striker on for Dick Advocaat's side. Boy, do they need it - they could do with an extra two.
Jeremain Lens stings the hands of John Ruddy with another banana shot from range - straight down his throat though.

We're back under way at the Stadium of Light.
One change - for Sunderland - Danny Graham is on for Sebastian Larsson.

Quote MessageNorwich have played really well so far. Russell Martin's goal was an excellent reaction from him. Steven Whittaker then broke from the right and scored with a super strike.

Sunderland 0-2 Norwich.
And it's Norwich who end the first half on the front foot.
Graham Dorrans flashes one wide after a lovely Nathan Redmond nutmeg in the box.
There are boos from the home fans...

Sebastian Larsson thinks so - he charges down Sebastien Bassong not once but twice.
The crowd are on their feet but it's just a Norwich throw at left-back...

Three minutes added on. Is there time?
Sunderland 0-2 Norwich
No momentum left in this half, seemingly. Not that Sunderland had a lot of it anyway. The balls played back to Costel Pantilimon as Norwich defend their turf well.

Bit of a break in play as Robbie Brady gets some treatment.
No arguments from Alex Neil at this stage...
Sunderland 0-2 Norwich
Steven Fletcher almost makes me eat my words. How close was that header from a Jeremain Lens cross? Close indeed. A good position but he was under pressure from his marker though.
Would have been a brilliant time to score. About three minutes to go before the break.
Sunderland 0-2 Norwich
Now there is some noise! Boos from the stands as Cameron Jerome almost adds a third!
Nathan Redmond's cross pings around before reaching the big man - Jerome was off balance as he prodded over though.
Wow. This is not what Sunderland were looking for. Two goals in the five minutes before half-time? Not even one is looking likely.
Steven Whittaker
Where oh where is the Sunderland defence? Steven Whittaker is strong but he just waltzes through Patrick van Aanholt and Younes Kaboul before blazing home.
Glorious start for Norwich.

Sebastian Coates doesn't time this one nearly as well though - Norwich free-kick and Nathan Redmond picks up where Robbie Brady let off by hitting the Sunderland wall.
Costel Pantilimon races off his line to collect the ball as it's pumped back in from deep. He's back in the game.
