Adil Aouchiche
Image source, Rex FeaturesAdil Aouchiche has been on the pitch for just over two minutes and now has Sunderland well on their way to victory with their third goal.
He meets a wonderful Jack Clarke pass to turn home from point-blank range.
Just moments earlier he was the one that almost teed Clarke up, only for that effort to have been blocked.
Sunderland 2-1 Birmingham City
It's a double change for Sunderland now.
Jobe Bellingham and Patrick Roberts are done for the day. Adil Aouchiche and Eliezer Mayenda come on
Sunderland 2-1 Birmingham City
It's corner after corner at the moment.
Blues' Cody Drameh has a shot blocked this time as the Birmingham City begin peppering the hosts.
As Jordan James heads into Sunderland's box to try attack this corner for Birmingham City, he is called over to be replaced by Siriki Dembele.
Sunderland 2-1 Birmingham City
Sunderland have themselves another corner now. They have had a lot of joy from set-pieces so far, but this one provides none.

Do they have it in them to fight back to earn Wayne Rooney his first win as Blues boss? It's a big ask after that Dion Sanderson own goal
Peterborough 5-0 Cambridge
It's all over in the derby at the Weston Homes Stadium.
Peterborough get back to winning ways emphatically to put a bit of pressure on the top three ahead of their games this afternoon.
Braces from Ephron Mason-Clark and Kwame Poku plus a Liam Bennett own goal ensured all three points for Darren Ferguson's side.
Meanwhile, this is only the second time this season that Cambridge have conceded more than two goals in a league game. They also had clean sheets in their last three League One games.
Certainly one to forget for the U’s.
Sunderland 2-1 Birmingham City
John Ruddy keeps Birmingham City in this game, with this save.
He makes himself big to deny Daniel Neil's low shot from a tight angle. Jack Clarke's vision to pick Neil out on the overlap was key in carving out that chance.
Sunderland 2-1 Birmingham City
Tony Mowbray now turns to his bench. Abdoullah Ba comes on for Nazarii Rusyn, who gets plenty of praise form the home fans as he heads off.

Blues have once shown their ability to react in this game and they will have to do it again.
They can't allow themselves to be flattened too much by falling behind.
Liam Bennett - own goal (86 mins)
It's five!
Peterborough on their way to a huge win as Liam Bennett puts it into his own net.
When it rains it pours is certainly the case now for Cambridge United.
Dion Sanderson og
Image source, Rex FeaturesFrom a corner, a deep, deep cross is headed back across goal from Trai Hume.
It is a header that loops over Birmingham City goalkeeper John Ruddy, and Nectarios Triantis tries to get in there to bundle the ball home. Or is that an own goal in the end for Dion Sanderson? It appears it has gone down as one for Sanderson.
Who scored will be debated, no doubt. Also, Blues might feel the ball was out of play by the time Hume managed to get his head on it for the assist.
Sunderland 1-1 Birmingham City
Tony Mowbray has his arms folded and is looking typically stoney-faced as he watches his Sunderland side head the early second-half pressure on.
They are yet to create an meaningful chance since coming back out, but they are threatening.
Sunderland 1-1 Birmingham City
Jack Clarke links up with Jobe Bellingham well on the left.
Clarke runs the ball deep, but he fails to cut his pass back before it goes dead.
Birmingham City were quickly carved up there after Juninho Bacuna had the ball nicked from him after his bustling run out of defence.
Sunderland 1-1 Birmingham City
Sunderland have started the second half as they did the first, attacking and energetic.
Jack Clarke has seen plenty of the ball.
Sunderland 1-1 Birmingham City
Birmingham City's Jordan James is quick to find his way into the referee's book.
He can't deal with Jack Clarke and is cautioned for his efforts.

Sam Robinson: Referee hasn’t got a clue what he is doing, Bacuna has committed enough fouls to have three yellow cards yet manages to get Hume and Roberts a yellow instead.
Sunderland 1-1 Birmingham City
We are back up and running at the Stadium of Light.
The second-half promises much after that incident-packed first 45 minutes.
