Sunderland recorded a 2-0 win over Dundee United in a pre-season friendly – but who impressed for Alex Neil’s side at Tannadice Park?

After a goalless first half, Trai Hume opened the scoring with a header for the Black Cats seven minutes after the interval.

United captain Charlie Mulgrew then scored a spectacular own goal to double Sunderland’s lead ten minutes later.

Neil named a strong starting XI against the SPL side and only made two changes in the second half.

Here’s how each Sunderland player fared at Tannadice Park:
