LEE BURGE
Charlton’s opener will go down as a Sc owen own goal, and both B urge and the midfielder should have done better to clear Inn iss’ header. Beaten by Gilbey in the second half but did make a good stop shortly after. 5
MAX POWER
Improved when pushed forward for the latter stages. Defended OK but the very lively Jaiyesimi caused him problems on the counterattack.5
DION SANDERSON
Brought the ball out from the back well at times and made some good covering runs, but it was an afternoon in which Sunderland struggled to cope with the lively Stock ley .6
LUKE O’NIEN
Had a difficult afternoon against Stockley and wasn’t as dominant in the air as he has often has been of late. 5
CALLUM MCFADZEAN
Made one or two dangerous breaks forward and drew one very good save from Amos in the immediate aftermath of the opening goal. 5
LYNDEN GOOCH
Defensively put in a good shift and helped snuff out a number of dangerous counter-attacks down his flank. In possession he struggled. 5
CARL WINCHESTER
Tidy in possession and rarely gave it away but never really able to influence it moving towards the final third. Capable of more .5
JOSH SCOWEN
Scored a very clever header from distance and did well to win the ball back in good areas through that final half an hour, but it was a poor clearance that allowed Charlton to get ahead .5
AIDEN MCGEADY Sunderland’ s end product was often wasteful but McGeady played some excellent passes that should have yielded more .7
AIDEN O’BRIEN
Battled well in the early stages and created plenty of space for Charlie Wyke through the opening exchanges. 5
CHARLIE WYKE
Pressed very well and got into some good areas, but will rue two early efforts that could have given hiss idea valuable lead .5 Subs
CONOR MCLAUGHLIN
Got forward and delivered a couple of decent crosses with no endresult.6
JORDAN JONES
Not a this sharpest and wasted some good crossing opportunities. 5
ROSS STEWART
Got in some good positions and caused Charlton a lot of problems. 6
DENVER HUME
Drove into some dangerous areas but too often the cross was easy for Amos to gather .5
