Sunderland recorded their first win of the season after a 2-1 victory over Rotherham – but how did each player fare at the Stadium of Light?
The Black Cats fell a goal down when Hakeem Odoffin opened the scoring with a neat finish in the 20th minute, yet Tony Mowbray’s side reacted well, drawing level courtesy of Jobe Bellingham’s header two minutes later.
Bellingham then scored again shortly after half-time, converting from inside the box after he was set up by Bradley Dack.
Here’s how Phil Smith rated the Sunderland players at the Stadium of Light:
9. Patrick Roberts - 7
Was left frustrated in the first half as his team mates struggled to find him in areas where he could really do damage. Unsurprisingly looked a massive threat in the second half as his team lifted it. Came off with what looked like a muscle injury, which is a big concern for Sunderland. 7 Photo: Frank Reid
10. Jack Clarke - 8
A top performance. Played his part in the first goal and Rotherham couldn’t really get near him on the ball. Finding his groove and that is good news for Sunderland. 8 Photo: Chris Fryatt
11. Bradley Dack - 6
Couldn’t impact the game in the first half and is clearly still building his match sharpness, but showed his class with a delicate assist for Jobe’s second. 6 Photo: Frank Reid
12. Alex Pritchard (sub) - 6
Not as influential as in recent weeks, but played some smart passes as Sunderland saw the game out with relative ease. 6 Photo: Frank Reid
