You're going to need to set aside 30 minutes of your day for this and probably commandeer the big telly, but when you do...enjoy.
Just how did Sunderland slay the entitled neighbour up the road? Well it wasn't that difficult really. They played with no recognised striker up top, convincingly lost the midfield battle and had no substitutes to dictate any change. This aside, Sunderland had a solid game plan they largely stuck to and aside from gifting Newcastle United a goal inside of 10 minutes, they executed their plan pretty well. A second half performance of perfection sealed what might easily have been a larger score line on another day.
Obviously I can't put it on YouTube, so I can't embed a link here, but you can watch it on either of these links for free.
