Following a catastrophic pre-season for Hull, The Tigers are entering their first bout with no manager and only 13 fit senior players. The recent repeat of disappointment for the home side will leave them under prepared and certainly not confident against the current Champions. Only time will tell.

Sunderland press into the final third, but within seconds they are surrounded by blue shirts. They've got to be cleverer than that when taking on such an organised side. Willy Caballero is yet to break a sweat.

Man City appear to have eased off the gas and have momentarily lost their attacking threat. Could this be the time for Sunderland to take advantage?

GOAL

Against all odds, Jermaine Defoe has scored the equalizer.

It was a perfectly timed run, followed by a tidy finish past Caballero that made the difference. We are now set for an exciting 20 minutes.

Following that strike, Jermaine Defoe is now one of only eight players to ever score in 16 different seasons.
