"An entertaining clash at the Stadium of Light saw both sides enjoy threatening spells and chances throughout the game and Bernardo Silva had an early goal disallowed for offside before Brian Brobbey and Erling Haaland had first-half efforts saved. Trai Hume glanced a header over before the break and Savinho and Eliezer Mayenda both went close in the second half before substitute Josko Gvardiol hit the post with 16 minutes of normal time to go."
"City found the net six minutes in when Haaland flicked Rayan Cherki's corner into the path of Silva to hook home, but the goal was disallowed for offside. After a comfortable period of possession from City, Sunderland had their first opportunity in the 19th minute when Brobbey latched onto Nordi Mukiele's aerial pass and broke down the centre of the pitch, but his effort was saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma before the follow-up was cleared."
Sunderland extended their unbeaten Premier League home record to ten games by holding Manchester City to a goalless draw at the Stadium of Light.

Josko Gvardiol struck the post late on. The result left City four points behind league leaders Arsenal and kept Sunderland seventh.
