Sunderland secured their place in the last eight of the Carabao Cup with a 3-2 win over Brentford.
Head coach Régis Le Bris made eleven changes for the game, but saw his young side produce an excellent spell of counterattacking football to seal the win.
Here’s how we rated all of the Black Cats involved on the night...
9. CAM - Chemsdine Talbi
Certainly owes Ta Bi for his goal but to be fair he started the move with some good play and was in a good position to make sure it crossed the line. A real threat again in a central position and certainly took his chance to catch the eye. Understandably a little quieter in the second half as Sunderland dropped off to defend their lead. 8 | Chris Fryatt
10. LW - Malick Fofana
A good header at the back post to put Sunderland three up and to get his first goal for the club. Much of Sunderland’s attacking threat came down the right flank but Fofana has shown more confidence and intent in his last two appearances. 7 | Sunderland Echo, Chris Fryatt
11. ST - Timur Tutierov
Took his goal very well and though physically it was a tough night against Brentford’s centre backs his willingness to constantly run in behind caused them all sorts of problems and led to the third goal. Can be very proud and pleased with his progress. 7 | Chris Fryatt, Echo
12. Sub - Chris Rigg
Worked hard and got into some excellent positions that he might feel he could have made more of. 6 | AFP via Getty Images
