Replay shows the ref got it right and Byram is extremely lucky not to get booked for a dive Big let-off for Sunderland Stewart wins a free-kick just outside the left-hand edge of the Norwich box, Pritchard plays it to Gooch on the edge of the D and his low strike is deflected over the bar by Dowell for a corner Neil crosses into the box from the right, Stewart's volley from a yard out is touched onto the bar by Krul, and the rebound comes to Pritchard but his volley is blocked by Hanley on the line A very good first half from Sunderland, and they have had some big chances to take a lead into half time - Stewart and Evans went very close in injury time at the end of the first period.

Sunderland were beaten 1-0 by Norwich City at the Stadium of Light – but how did each player fare for the Black Cats?
Josh Sargent gets only goal as Black Cats head coach skips fixture for talks with Potters over replacing Michael O'Neill.
Stewart’s final shot of the half took a familiar path when it was bravely blocked by Aarons and then booted to safety. The former Newcastle keeper, who had received a warm welcome on his return to the North East, made one superb instinctive save to secure their first away win of the season. Patterson was out of his goal when Ramsey broke down the left and his cross evaded the Sunderland defence for Sargent to lift home his fourth goal in three games.
