Sunderland's under-21s side were beaten 2-1 by Tottenham in the Premier League Cup – but how did each player fare for the young Black Cats?
Chelsea loanee Mason Burstow, Nectarios Triantis, Hemir Semedo and goalkeeper Nathan Bishop all started for Graeme Murty's side at Eppleton CW, just a day before the senior side's Championship fixture against Leeds.
Yet the hosts found themselves two goals down inside six minutes after goals from Jude Soonsup-Bell and Rio Kyermaten, with substitute Harry Gardiner scoring a late consolation goal in second-half stoppage time.
Here’s how each Sunderland player fared:
9. Harrison Jones - 7

10. Mason Burstow - 6
Predominantly found himself on the left flank looking to cut inside. Threatened in flashes and had a couple of efforts saved by Gunter. Replaced just after the hour mark. 6 Photo: Frank Reid
