Norwich 0 Sunderland 0: Fight! Handbags on the touchline and even Big Sam gets involved in a bit of pushing and shoving in a rather ineffective melee on the touchline.

Norwich 0 Sunderland 0: Norwich all over Sunderland at the moment, Jonny Howson gets th ball totally unmarked from a corner, but his long range shot is blocked.

Naismith's touch today so far has been dreadful.

Norwich 0 Sunderland 0: Still only Norwich doing anything, Brady picking out Mbokani with a great cross from the left, but the header doesn't have much power and is easily saved. Sunderland living dangerously.

Norwich 0 Sunderland 0: Khazri picks up a yellow card for a tackle on O'Neill.

Borini's effort goes wide

Norwich 0 Sunderland 0: Jarvis is played in behind Sunderland's defence, but Cattermole does brilliantly to get back and make a tackle to snuff out the danger.

PENALTY TO SUNDERLAND! Wisdom clatters Borini and the referee points to the spot. Yellow card for the defender.

Fabio Borini scores his 4th Premier League goal of the season from Sunderland's first shot on target. Huge goal.https://t.co/TCYhwpeMza
