5. LB - Harrison Jones
Got away with a couple of errors early that could and maybe should have led to a goal, but to his credit improved significantly. Defended well thereafter and decent on the ball. 6 | Chris Fryatt
6. CDM - Noah Sadiki
Got about the pitch nicely, breaking up play and finding team mates in good areas. A smart player who’ll be a big asset. Just one or two slack passes on this occasion. 6 | Noah Sadiki. Photo by Ian Horrocks courtesy of Sunderland AFC.
7. CM - Habib Diarra
Got into some good areas at time but fired one shot from a promising position straight at Pandur. Gets about the pitch well and looked a threat. 6 | Habib Diarra, Harrison Jones and Jenson Jones. Photo by Ian Horrocks courtesy of Sunderland AFC.
8. CM - Enzo Le Fee
One or two bright moments but not really his night in the end. Attempted clearance struck Brooks and found Tinsdale for Hull’s equaliser, and couldn’t make the most of set piece opportunities. 5 | Photo by Ian Horrocks courtesy of Sunderland AFC.
