    Sunderland 2-1 Leicester

    What a chance! What a save! 

    There's a scramble in the Sunderland area as the ball pinballs around and eventually falls at Wes Morgan's feet. He shoots and Jordan Pickford bats it away. Crucial.

    David Moyes rallies is his players from the edge of the technical area.

    Win this and the Black Cats move up to 18th, one point from safety. What a big result it will be.

    Victor Anichebe has been everywhere for Sunderland, causing problems in attack and helping out in defence. He's put in a great shift.

    Sunderland 0-0 Leicester

    Victor Anichebe shoots low from distance, but doesn't get anything behind it and Ron-Robert Zieler has so much time he could bob to the Sunderland canteen and make a brew before the ball reaches him.

    Sunderland 0-0 Leicester

    Sunderland need to get back to what they were doing for the first 20 minutes of this game. They were excellent. Playing like a side at the bottom of the tabl now unfortunately.

  18. CHANCE!published at 56 mins

    Sunderland 0-0 Leicester

    Suddenly, though, Islam Slimani has a chance as a Jamie Vardy lets Marc Albrighton's cross run through to his strike partner, he shoots first time but the effort hits Papy Djilobodji right in front of goal. The Sunderland man didn't know much about it.

    Seb Larsson is making his first Premier League appearance of the season and is treated to Sunderland fans chanting his name.

    It's Leicester who have started the second half better, although no chances yet.
