  • 20' A goal from the Australia international Ryan Edwards! He fires home on 20 to make it 1-1!
  • 25' A quiet spell here at Stadium of Light. Burton Albion FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.

  • 34' Luke O'Nien is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Sunderland AFC so far.
  • 39' It is a cagey affair so far. Sunderland AFC in their trying to find a way past Burton Albion FC's compact .

  • 49' Colin Daniel has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 50' That is a Yellow card for Burton Albion FC. Stephen Quinn will be fuming at that decision.

  • 56' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Oliver Sarkic.
  • 61' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
