Simms gets it and slips in Pritchard who's through on goal but he curls over the bar. Excellent ball down the right for Jones. Howson FK swung in from wide left and Patterson has to get across to keep it out. Boro work it across to Giles and he crosses early this time.

We could easily have come away with something tonight, but it's a derby game and when the main goal threat wasn't on the pitch, that completely changed how we prepared." In the first half, we saw the attacking side of his game; the second half he was asked to do things slightly differently with a fair bit of defending. We lost our talisman {Stewart) before kick-off and I think it knocked the stuffing out of us a little bit. "It was always going to be a tight game. "He was involved in a key battle with Jack Clarke down the right-hand side and he did a fantastic job.

RILEY MCGREE RUINED Tony Mowbray's return to Middlesbrough as the new Sunderland boss suffered derby defeat in his second game in charge.

They might have fallen further behind had Patterson not managed to claw away Rodrigo Muniz’s 62nd-minute downward header seconds after Matt Crooks had fired across the face of goal, and the keeper denied former Black Cats forward Duncan Watmore, on as a substitute, 10 minutes later. However, the same combination did the trick within two minutes when McGree controlled Giles’ driven cross with his first touch and then dispatched it past Patterson with his second to give the Teessiders a deserved lead. Black Cats goalkeeper Anthony Patterson had to claw away Jonny Howson’s 23rd-minute free-kick at his near post and when Giles fed the loose ball back across goal, McGree stabbed a shot into the ground and over the bar.
