  1. Goodbye

    Southampton 1-1 Sunderland

    A fair result in the end, but both sides remain in search of their first Premier League wins of the season.

    Thanks for joining me.

  2. FULL-TIME

    Southampton 1-1 Sunderland

    A point apiece.

  3. Southampton 1-1 Sunderland

    James Ward-Prowse's corner is cleared by the visitors.

  4. Southampton 1-1 Sunderland

    Late corner for Southampton...

  5. Southampton 1-1 Sunderland

    Oooh. Southampton go forward and Oriel Romeu's thunderous strike is blocked by the impressive Papy Djilobodji.

  6. Southampton 1-1 Sunderland

    Duncan Watmore cuts inside the Southampton box but loses his footing in front of goal.

    Into added time, is there a winner in this game?

  9. CLOSE!

    Southampton 1-1 Sunderland

    Almost another for Southampton, but Matt Targett's curled free-kick goes narrowly wide. Would have been a worldie if that went in.

    I am gutted for Pickford. He has been outstanding.

    He has been great in this match but he should be saving that.

    Jay Rodriguez (84 mins)

    Oh Jordan Pickford.

    The Sunderland goalkeeper has had a wonderful game...up until now.

    Striker Jay Rodriguez has a speculative effort from around 25-yards out, which somehow squirms under Pickford's body.

    A real shame for the visitors, but the home supporters have something to cheer about.

  12. Southampton 0-1 Sunderland

    Matt Targett's free-kick is straight into the ball. Not a good strike by the Southampton man.

  13. Southampton 0-1 Sunderland

    Meanwhile, the rock solid Papy Djilobodji goes through Shane Long, who spun the Sunderland defender beautifully.

    A free-kick on the edge of the box for the home side. Can they grab an equaliser?

  14. SUBSTITUTION

    Southampton 0-1 Sunderland

    Last throw of the dice from Southampton boss Claude Puel, who sends on James Ward-Prowse in place of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

    To win the penalty it was clever play from Defoe. He allowed the ball across him and bought the penalty.

    Fonte shouldn't go to ground.

  16. Southampton 0-1 Sunderland

    Another brilliant save from Jordan Pickford, diving to his right to keep out Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's long-range effort.

    Great penalty. What a penalty.

    You wouldn't want anyone else in that position other than Jermain Defoe.

    Jermain Defoe (79 mins)

    A much deserved lead for Sunderland.

    Jermain Defoe hammers his penalty into the top right corner of the net. Fraser Forster had no chance.

  19. PENALTY TO SUNDERLAND

    Southampton 0-0 Sunderland

    Jose Fonte chops down Jermain Defoe from behind and the referee points to the spot.

    There is very little between Pickford and Vito Mannone. 

    I would edge with Pickford. He is the better keeper for the long term. He is certainly one to rely on to be number one for the next few years.
