LEE IN CRISIS AS CATS CRASH

LEE JOHNSON said SUNDERLAND have a confidence crisis after losing 1-0 to MANSFIELD.

Nigel Clough masterminded a rare win for the League Two side, who bossed the game and scored through Rhys Oates (right).

Black Cats boss Johnson said: “Today it just wasn’t there. First half, there was no confidence and I have a really big job bringing it back.”

Clough said: “Very special for the fans and players. You don’t come to many stadia as good as this, perform like that, win and celebrate at the end.’’
