Key moments
56'The Wolves players halt their celebrations as referee Paul Tierney makes the VAR signal to review the goal, most likely to ascertain if there was a foul in the build-up play.
54'Here comes the VAR decision. The goal is given and Wolves players have a reason to celebrate!
54'1 - 1Santiago Bueno (Wolves) outjumps the defence inside the six-yard box to meet the corner and scores with a great header into the left side of the goal. The keeper had no chance to react. The score is now 1:1.
24'Daniel Ballard (Sunderland) is shown a harsh red card by the referee as his tackle warranted no more than a yellow card!
23'It's been a while since that contentious challenge by Daniel Ballard (Sunderland), but referee Paul Tierney must have received some information as he makes the VAR signal. He's going to review and it could result in a red card!
17'0 - 1Gooal! Granit Xhaka takes over corner duties. Nordi Mukiele (Sunderland) gets his head on the ball from the corner and puts it into the left side of the net. 0:1.
