Southampton vs Sunderland - March 2024

[Nockya]

Southampton vs Sunderland.
Sunderland faces Southampton at St Mary's Stadium with the prospect of losing six in a row (oh! remember how we loved saying that versus the scum).

Sunderland is 11th in the table, while Southampton are flying high in the 4th spot.
I can't see us getting anything from this game, but football can come up with surprises, right?

The team news is:

Sunderland AFS starting XI: Patterson, Hume, Seelt, Ballard, Hjelde, Neil, Rigg, Bellingham, Ba, Mundle, Burstow.
SAFC substitutes: Bishop, Pembele, Ekwah, Aouchiche, Hemir, Lavery, Jones, Styles, Rusyn.

Mason Burstow, Romaine Mundle and Abdoullah Ba start (those three changes from the last game).
Hemir Semedo and Pierre Ekwah were demoted to the bench.
Luke O'Nien was suspended due to all those yellow cards the lad picked up.

Of all the games we will play this season, this one I feared most after Leicester.

4-0 DEFEAT - NIGHT NIGHT ALL!

Wow, it's unlike you haha.

I hope the lads go for a draw and get it, even a bore draw would do.

Just being realistic.

Rubbish man. I've seen better action watching paint dry.

At half-time, it is Southampton 2-0 Sunderland.
Goals by one Armstrong and then an ex-Maggie reject also called Armstrong scored a penalty and he took the piss out of the Black Cats fans in the process.
It's an uphill task now.

2-1 - we just got a goal back from Mundle.
Great goal - we have a chance now to get something from this game.
