Thanks for joining us today on a day of more derby glee for Sunderland and woe for Newcastle. You can follow the Manchester derby here or Bournemouth v Tottenham here.

"It was never a penalty. Absolutely ridiculous," Magpies boss Steve McClaren tells BBC Sport.

Newcastle boss Steve McClaren has turned up to face the media now. We'll bring you his reaction shortly.

Newcastle went down to 10 men when Fabricio Coloccini fouled Steven Fletcher, with Adam Johnson scoring the resulting penalty.

But, despite benefiting, Black Cats boss Sam Allardyce would like to see the rules changed so a player wouldn't be sent off on top of conceding a penalty.

"It’s the rules sadly. I think a penalty is enough," he told BBC Sport.

"I think the referees think the same but the governing body say it has to be a red. It’s a foul and a penalty – that’s enough for us. 11 v 11 is what we want to keep the entertainment level up. I’m sure our fans wouldn’t agree but as a football man I’d like to see the rule changed."

Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce told BBC Sport: "We’ve carried that precious piece of history on – the fourth manager to beat Newcastle in their second game as Sunderland boss.

"This was quite an achievement considering the low ebb we're in at the moment - facing a rival with the extra pressure of having won the last five derbies. 

"Everyone’s done a job – the players on the pitch and me, tactically setting them out. We had some good fortune for the first goal and we took advantage of it. It’s the first good weekend the fans have had this season.  

"It’s a big victory and we can all look forward to next week. Hopefully this is the start of us getting out of trouble."

Sam Allardyce becomes the fourth Sunderland manager in a row to face Newcastle in their second game in charge, with all of them winning. 

Luke Stovell: We may have let in two sloppy goals but at least McLaren still went attacking after we went to 10 men. 

Callum Hogg: Game utterly ruined by an atrocious refereeing performance. 

Anthony Rhodes: 10 games played, three ruined by red cards. Newcastle not played badly going forward this season. Kamikaze defending remain.  

Sunderland become the first team to ever win six Tyne-Wear/Wear-Tyne derbies in a row.

It was a bit of a smash and grab - but Newcastle have themselves to blame to some extent for failing to take their chances.

Ayoze Perez controls the ball onto his hand in the box and that will probably be the last action.

John Dykes: Newcastle will be seriously ruing using up all their goals last weekend. 

Ben Turner: People criticising Sunderland need to remember this is an Allardyce set-up, not pretty football but devastatingly effective. 

Rob Ward: You just described Sunderland's third goal as total football. Well.

Sunderland have had three shots on target - Newcastle have had eight.

Florian Thauvin tries a scissors kick but instead of the ball he accidentally meets Billy Jones's head. No foul given though. We're into four minutes added on.

That third goal takes Sunderland above Newcastle on goal difference.

Newcastle haven't played badly today at all - they were the better team until it all went wrong in the 45th minute.

But if they've failed to score with their first 20 efforts, it's hard to see them scoring twice in the remaining six minutes.

That's all the substitutions made for this game as Jeremain Lens is replaced by Seb Larsson in the Sunderland midfield.

Sebastian Coates heads Moussa Sissoko's deep ball out for a corner. It ends with Florian Thauvin dragging a shot wide from the edge of the box, having earlier had an effort blocked.
