Sunderland were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw with relegated Wolves on Saturday afternoon.
The Black Cats were ahead and in control through Nordi Mukiele’s early goal when Dan Ballard was shown a red for a hair pull, changing the complexion of the game immediately. Wolves equalised from a corner not long after the break and though Sunderland responded impressively, they couldn’t quite find what would have been a brilliant winner.
Here’s how we rated all of the Black Cats involved on the day...

Showed good energy and got into good areas consistently, just couldn’t get the connection he wanted on a couple of volleys. 6 | Getty Images
14. Sub - Dennis Cirkin
Took a little while to get up to the pace of the game and was shown an early yellow card but helped his time over the line and made some decent runs forward. 6 | Richard Sellers/PA Wire
